After Netflix released their Cowboy-themed trailer for the new season of Queer Eye, fans have been going wild in anticipation of the new season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fab 5 are back on the 31st of December with more makeovers, madness and a whole lot of love for season 6, and the guests this time around are better than ever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the upcoming guests is Angel Flores, a trans barbell athlete from Austin, Texas. After her impactful appearance in the new trailer, fans have been trying to find out everything they can on the weightlifting beauty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s the scoop…<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Who is Angel Flores?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Angel Flores is most known for her impact in the weightlifting world for trans women and men. Her passion for body-building and weightlifting started when she was only 6. Known at school for her dedication to sports, she excelled in football and other activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In high school, Flores lost 60lbs and fell in love with the gym and working out. Looking back now Flores says she can see her passion for sport and the gym was also due to her unhappiness with who she was as a person. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flores says: “I was in the gym day in and day out. 5 am before school, and 4 pm, after the bell.”<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flores continued to college and joined the university Olympic weightlifting team but was never quite happy with her success and said that there was always something missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
