Juliette Bergmann (previously Meijer) (born November 30, 1958) is a Dutch female bodybuilding champion.
During her childhood she lost two brothers, causing much grief to her mother, who laid a larger responsibility on Juliette, the oldest living child.
[1][2] After finishing school she went on to study financial management, journalism and fitness training.
After her 7th place at the 1984 IFBB European Championships, she got a new coach, Jim Lensveld, Vice President of the Dutch National Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation.
However, she achieved significant success in 1986 by winning the Pro World Championship, placing second (by one point) in the Ms. International, and sixth in the Ms. Olympia.
[1][2][4] In 2001, Bergmann returned to competition after a 12-year absence, during which she worked as a judge for the International Federation of BodyBuilders (IFBB).
She repeated as the Ms. Olympia lightweight class winner in 2002 and 2003, losing the overall title to Lenda Murray both years.
