Elizabeth Smart is rewriting her story, and how! More than two decades after surviving one of the most memorable kidnapping cases in America’s history, the former teen is now thriving in life as an advocate for trauma survivors, and even as a bodybuilder.
On April 21, 2026, Elizabeth shared her jaw-dropping transformation as a bodybuilder. On her Instagram, the child safety activist proudly celebrated her chiselled body as she stood on stage at the Wasatch Warrior bodybuilding and fitness competition, which took place last week in Salt Lake City, Utah. This was her fourth bodybuilding competition.
