KENDALL CALL; Hedonic Eating, Normal vs Optimal Hormones, Leaving Nursing for Functional Coaching

Confessions of a Bikini Pro

Today I speak with IFBB Pro Kendall Call, born and raised in Oregon but currently living in Tampa. She was involved in sports at a very young age and began training with a coach when she was 15. She became a personal trainer while in undergrad and went on to get her Master's in Nursing from Johns Hopkins while also starting to online coach as a side hobby. She had planned on competing in June of 2020 in her first show but it got canceled due to COVID. A year later, she did an 8 week prep while coaching herself. She won the overall at her first two shows, and decided to do Universe three weeks later and earned hoer Pro card!

In June of 2023, she quit her full-time nursing job to pursue her online coaching business after realizing that coaching was her passion. Kendall wants to bridge the gap between western medicine, fitness, and functional health.
