    Default Species Announces the addition of Mikaila Soto as a Sponsored Athlete

    Species Nutrition is proud to announce the addition of Mikaila Soto as a sponsored athlete.

    Mikaila earned her pro card in the figure division of the IFBB at the 2010 Team Universe. Mikaila began hitting her competition stride at the St. Louis IFBB pro figure show with an 11th place finish. But suddenly in April of 2011 she was stricken with a pneumonia related condition and spent a month in the hospital and had gained 64 lbs since her competition. Species had met Mikaila at the 2011 Arnold and found a fabulous woman and a fabulous athlete. She refused to accept her illness and fought with the intensity of a lioness, returning first to her home in a wheelchair for six weeks, then to her work and unbelievably to the stage in August at the Phoenix IFBB pro show. She then followed this up with an amazing performance in the RX Muscle Bros vs Pros in Phoenix winning the entire medley competition. She continued her comeback at the Kentucky IFBB pro show finishing 10th. Her amazing 2011 is chronicled both here on RX Muscle and on Speciesnutrition.com

    The sole proprietor of Soto CPT , a training facility in the Chicago suburbs, Mikaila often puts in 12 hour days then followed by her training. We are all familiar with the look, the ink and the inspirational spirit but the judges have advised her that she is too conditioned and too muscular for figure. So on March 17th Mikaila will make her IFBB pro physique division debut..

    A mother of two, a wife of over 20 years, a business owner and an IFBB pro, with one of the most amazing spirits on earth, Species Nutrition welcomes Mikaila Soto.

    Mikaila is awesome! Great choice Dave. Not only is she beautiful but she's got great energy and passion as witnessed by her performance at the Bros vs. Pros last year in Chicago. Here's a pic of me and her from the Jr. Nationals a couple of years ago when she took third.
