Soon after her recovery, she began training with weights to regain the weight she needed to get back to modelling. After achieving a somewhat toned build, she was rejected at model agencies for being oversized. She then decided to give up modeling and dedicate herself to bodybuilding. During her bodybuilding career Sharon had gained nearly 50 pounds, but then cut back when she changed to fitness competitions.[4] Bruneau was on the cover of Muscle & Fitness and Flex.{{when|date=October 2013}} Weider Health and Fitness publications had taken Sharon on as one of their first ever signed female representatives from 1991-1998.[5] Sharon retired from bodybuilding competition after the 1994 Ms. Olympia contest, switching to fitness competition. After placing 11th out of 17 competitors in the 1995 Fitness Olympia, Sharon had noted that her low ranking was due to her muscularity.[6] In 1997, Ms. Fitness Olympia's judging procedure involved awarding points to the women with an overall toned body and marking down those who appeared "overly muscular".[6] Sharon can now be found inspiring people all over the world with her motivational workshops where she speaks about health and fitness.[7] She has had minor roles in the movies: Tornado Run (1995), Nebula (1995), Prey Harder (1996), and R.S.V.P. (2002). In 2007, she did minor stuntwork for the movie Smokin' Aces. Sharon was also offered a role in the movie Endangered Species (1982) to play a bad alien.[8] Around the 1980s and 1990s, many agents were recruiting body builders and wrestlers for sci-fi films.[8] This, in turn, offered a wider range in career possibilities for fitness and bodybuilding athletes. Portrayal of Indigenous Heritage in Flex MagazineSharon Bruneau featured in Flex magazine showing off her muscular physique in tribal-like attire, with bones around her neck and a spear in her hands.[9] The caption associated with this image referenced Sharon stating, "I am particularly proud of my Native American heritage to which this photo pays homage."[9] Contest history
