Stacey Clark – IFBB Pro & Transformation Specialist, Chosen Fitness
Stacey Clark’s journey into fitness began in 2013 with a simple desire: to stay active and feel better in her own skin. What started as casual gym sessions soon ignited a fire within her — a passion for bodybuilding, personal growth, and discovering what was truly possible through discipline and dedication. That fire fueled her to step on stage for her first bodybuilding competition in 2017, an experience that would forever change the course of her life.
Through years of early mornings, strict routines, and a mindset forged in resilience, Stacey earned her IFBB Pro Card in the Figure division by 2019. It wasn’t just the trophy or the title that marked her transformation — it was the mindset she had built along the way: one rooted in grit, faith, and a commitment to excellence in all things.
Today, Stacey proudly serves as a Transformation Specialist with Chosen Fitness, a leading fitness movement known for pushing boundaries and elevating lives. With a heart for people and a standard of excellence, Stacey works with clients from every background — from beginners learning to love the process, to athletes chasing peak performance.
