Olympic Weightlifter

“Optimum Nutrition is a highly professional brand, with a range of exceptionally high quality products that you know are going to help improve performance but that also taste great so you enjoy consumption.”

Biography

Emily Campbell is the most successful British weightlifter in history, a five-time European Champion, double Olympic and World medallist, and Commonwealth Games gold medallist. She made history at Tokyo 2020 as the first British woman to win an Olympic medal in weightlifting, and followed it up with bronze at Paris 2024.

Emily started out in the shot put and hammer throw at Leeds Beckett University, where a coach introduced her to weightlifting. Just 18 months later, she won bronze at the 2018 Commonwealth Games, the start of a record-breaking career.

Now an Optimum Nutrition ambassador, Emily credits the brand with helping optimise her performance and body composition at the highest level. A trailblazer for women in sport, she’s on a mission to inspire more women to get strong, and she’s not done yet.
