Chapados took home a major jackpot[/caption]
The Olympia took place in Las Vegas[/caption]
Taking place at Resorts World in Las Vegas, 50 women lined up to compete in the Bikini event.
That number was eventually scaled down to 10 for the final.
And Chapados emerged victorious, having previously been crowned Bikini International champion on three separate occasions.
She finished ahead of Ashley Kaltwasser, who was aiming for her fourth Olympia win and 50th victory of her pro bodybuilding career.
Chapados’ glorious moment saw her pocket the £38,000 jackpot.
And it is clear she is a deserved winner after pictures emerged of her in her pre-bodybuilding days.
Snaps show the Canadian with a much slimmer physique before she started pumping iron.
A gruelling gym regime and a diet consisting of high protein and carbohydrates have worked wonders over the years.
And she is now reaping the rewards after becoming the No1 Bikini contender on the planet.
Elsewhere, Samson Dauda was crowned Mr Olympia for the first time in his career.
He beat Hadi Choopan and Derek Lunsford to the top prize.
Chris Bumstead took home another Classic Physique award before retiring.
While Ryan Terry was the winner of the Men’s Physique competition.
