I just spoke with Valentina Chipega and she will be making a comeback at the 2007 Ms. Olympia. Having lived in Anchorage, Alaska, for the past few years, Chipega has also stated she will be moving to Las Vegas in November.
Currently Chipega is at a training weight of 158 pounds, and plans to compete at about 145 which should be an impressive look for the former Ukrainian and 1997 IFBB World Amateur champion.
Chipega has competed in six previous Ms. Olympia contests and was the Heavyweight Ms. Olympia winner in 2000. In 2002 she placed second to lightweight winner Juliette Bergmann, and after an eighth-place finish at the 2004 Ms. O it was thought she may retire permanently.
Valentina's return is great news and will add much color to the Ms. Olympia field.
