About Em & Iron Diamond

CREATED UNDER PRESSURE

Emilija grew up playing sports in Canada, including hockey and rugby, at which she excelled. As she moved into her mid-teens, she found the weight room and fell in love.

Emilija began competing in figure shows as she began her post-secondary education, studying physical education.

Graduating in 2016 with her Bachelors of Physical Education & Coaching, specializing in Kinesiology, Emilija was once again able to focus fully on competing and earned her IFBB Pro Card by winning the Canadian Nationals Physique Overall in 2016. Emilija competed twice as a Pro in her rookie season, capturing 4th place in both the Alaska Pro and Vancouver Pro in 2017.

In 2022, Emilija returned to the stage earning herself a 2nd place finish at the Van Isle Showdown and the Toronto Pro. Just shy of 1 point making it to the Olympia stage.

That all changed in 2023, earning her qualification to the Olympia with a 1st place finish at the Toronto Pro.

Emilija began coaching athletes and lifestyle clients in 2013, with great success at helping people achieve whatever their personal fitness goal was.

    "I started my bodybuilding journey over 10 years ago and set a goal to earn my IFBB Pro card in the figure division.

    After hiring and working with several professional trainers, I became tired of cookie cutter workouts and eating a restricted diet of rice, asparagus, tilapia for years. The training wasn’t engaging and the restricted menu caused me to derail from my plans more times than I wanted.

    I found Emilija @IronDiamond on Facebook and was inspired by her physique and her posts that exhibited her strength as a woman both physically and mentally (any woman who lifts heavy weights and  rides motorcycles is a badass in my book).

    Her training style is superior to anyone I’ve trained with. She keeps the  workouts challenging and changes them up regularly based on the client’s goals. She closely guides my macros as my body and goals change. She’s approachable, encouraging and always responds to messages quickly.

    After only 6 months training with her, she had dialed me in and I earned two first place awards in my warm up show. I  then went on to Nationals and earned my Procard in two divisions and overall titles in both of those!

    I have been her client for over 2 years and will continue to work with her even though I’m not currently competing. She holds me accountable and guides me to help me live the heathy lifestyle I want!"
