BikiniDivision.com: What’s your full name, age, hometown, home gym? Would you like to share a fun fact about yourself?
Moriah Fischer: My name’s Moriah Fischer, I’m 24, I’m from Freeport, IL, and train at Anytime Fitness. As for fun facts, I have a couple to share. I have been in fitness my entire life. It originally started with doing dvd tapes with my mom and going for walks. As we got older, my mom made it a priority to include and show us fitness and what living healthy means. My mom, sister, and I got into running half marathons, 5ks, 10ks, and other road races.
I’m also child number 2 of 5. I’ve had such an amazing opportunity to have parents that involved my older sister and I when we adopted my younger sister from Almaty, Kazakhstan and my younger brother and sister from foster care.
BikiniDivision.com: When and why did you get started weight training and competing? What was your first contest?
Moriah Fischer: Kinda like my answer to number one. I have always lived a healthy and fit lifestyle. I’m very competitive and enjoy having an outlet for that. I did road races, cross country, and track in high school. I ended up having an injury from running. I almost tore my hamstring.
When I came back from that, it wasn’t the same. I didn’t enjoy it. So I didn’t go on to run in track. It was a few months of feeling lost because I was an athlete and then I ran into my previous personal trainer who had always talked to me about doing shows. I’ve always lifted weights because I knew it would help with running. My first show was the Noble Warrior Classic in may of 2018.
BikiniDivision.com: What do you love most about the bikini division?
Moriah Fischer: What I love the most about the bikini division is it’s subjective. You really don’t know what to expect or what they’re looking for until that day. I love that because we are all made different so all you can do is bring your best. I also love the glam!
BikiniDivision.com: What are some things you would like to accomplish in the short and long term with regards to competing?
Moriah Fischer: Some short term accomplishments would be to get my pro card. Long term would be to make it to the Olympia (and win).
BikiniDivision.com: What advice would you offer would be competitors interested in learning more about bikini and competing?
Moriah Fischer: You don’t want to look back and think why did I wish to get there faster. Your time will come in the meantime keep putting in the work.
BikiniDivision.com: Thank you so much for taking the time to do this feature. Hopefully we can do an IG Live down the road. In the meantime where can your friends and supporters go to learn more about you, as well as your sponsors?
