In other words, to emphasize the things that cause you to be marked down in a bikini contest.” In wellness you do quarter turns and the competitor poses in such a way to call attention to the muscularity, definition and separation in muscles like the hamstrings and glutes as well as the quadriceps.
One of the things that observers singled out at that event was the quality of Renee’s posing.

“This was a contest I was able to fully train and diet for, allowing me to be at my best.” And her best was good enough, since she won the Wellness division and became the first Wellness Pro in the IFBB Pro League. Instead, she considers that to be her participation in the 2020 Wings of Strength Tampa Pro, where the first Wellness division IFBB Pro League debuted. Renee doesn’t really consider that her pro debut. “I placed ninth, which was great for me considering I had actually peaked the day before in order to earn my pro card, with all the stress and excitement, I didn’t really hold my conditioning for the pro show the next day.” There was a pro bikini event that next day, so she changed her travel plans to stay over and compete for the first time as a pro. Renee had already earned her pro card at the Amateur Olympia in South America in 2019 where she won the overall award, but in the bikini division. Given her genetic structure, Renee decided to try Wellness when the division was introduced in 2020. “I have a lot of lower body muscle and I love training legs” Wings of Strength One of the things you most notice about Renee, aside from her fabulous physique, is her resemblance to Rachel McClish, a pioneer in Women’s Bodybuilding as Renee is in Wellness. So, when I read the rules for wellness, I immediately thought that was a category practically designed for me.”
“I have a lot of lower body muscle,” she says, “and I LOVE training legs with things like lots of squats and leg presses. “To do this,” Renee adds, “you have to stay in a catabolic state for a long time, which is not really healthy.” Plus, as a bikini competitor she had to avoid a lot of heavy leg training. So, bikini competitors with more density in the lower half have to focus on losing muscle in the legs and glutes. Renee points out that the female body in general tends to carry a disproportionate amount of weight below the waist.
“My problem,” she says, “is that I tend to be denser in my lower body than the bikini judges are looking for.” She had done nine national contests and two international shows, but was unable to win her pro card. Renee Harshey had been competing in bikini for quite a while.
