The 2024 Musclecontest Campinas Pro Bikini show is on Saturday, March 16, 2024, in Campinas, Brazil. Promoter Tamer El Guindy will host four IFBB Pro League competitors. The winner will earn qualification to compete at the 2024 Bikini Olympia, as part of the 2024 Olympia in Las Vegas, NV, on Oct. 10-14, 2024. None of the 2024 Musclecontest Campinas Pro competitors have yet qualified for the 2024 Olympia.
Brenda Farias won the 2023 Musclecontest Campinas Pro but was not in the lineup at the time of this article’s publication. Bikini division athletes are eligible to join this lineup until the promoter holds the athletes’ meeting before the show. So, more names may get added to the roster before pre-judging.
2024 Musclecontest Campinas Pro Roster
The roster below is per the IFBB Pro League website as of March 13, 2024. They all represent the host country:
- Rafaela Brandao (Brazil)
- Maria Aleksandra Rocha (Brazil)
- Luciana Santos (Brazil)
- Ana Carolina Souza (Brazil)

Rafaela Brandao
Brandao is making her IFBB Pro League debut at this competition. She’s coming off the 2023 NPC Worldwide Amateur Olympia Brazil competition, where she won the Masters Over 40 amateur event. She spent four seasons on the amateur circuit before leveling up to the pro ranks.
Luciana Santos
Santos is the only athlete in the lineup who competed in the 2023 edition of this show, finishing in sixth place. According to NPC News Online, that is her only pro show to date. With a year to train and improve, the judges and fans will likely see a better version of her physique.
There is no easily accessible public information about the other two competitors, Maria Aleksandra Rocha and Ana Carolina Souza. However, anything can happen on the right day at the right show. So, a lack of well-known pro contest history does not mean they can’t potentially win the show and the corresponding 2024 Olympia qualification.
Other Notes
This is one of two Bikini division contests taking place on the weekend. The other is the 2024 Bikini International UK event on the same day at the 2024 Arnold Classic UK in Birmingham, England.
