The next year, new rules of IFBB female professional division allowed two categories for Ms. Olympia contest: lightweight (up to 135 lbs. - 61,2 kg) and heavyweight (more than 135 lbs.). For other contest, there were also three classes. Chepiga won 2000 Jan Tana Pro Classic (middleweight category) and Ms. Olympia (heavyweight category).

The weight of Valentina is so near to the limit of the two classes (135 lbs. - 61,2 kg) that she compete sometime as an heavyweight and sometime as a lightweight. Valentina has a slow metabolism and she eat fonts of slim proteins like chicken breasts and egg whites, and rice and potatoes. She doesn't like to grow so much in off-season periods.
