I thought this was an interesting take to share with the audience here.
Well, as stated an hour before the end of the Ms. International Bodybuilding Show, Yaxeni was given the nod for first place. She was clearly in the best shape of her life, with hamstrings that had the audience gasping in amazement.
I have NEVER seen so many women off their peak at any one show.
Iris was penalized for more than obvious lumps in her rear end and shoulder (it was pretty shocking), Kristi Hawkins Was OFF her Nationals 2007 conditioning, Debbie Lascewski was way OFF her Nationals 2006 victory. (And I love the Kristi and Debbie L physiques.) Colette Nelson was off but had a very cool routine as she usually does. Colette is focusing on the NY Pro and should bring a much tighter package now that she is focused.
Honorable mentions to Cathy Le Francois and Annie Riveccio who both made significant improvements and brought their best packages to date. Cathy had deeply striate glutes and a graceful routine. Cathy was just off the hook with her conditioning and attitude on stage. She was robbed and should have placed a lot higher than where she did.
Annie increased her bicep and shoulder size to match her legs - and her stage presence was great. She has broken through the 'shy' barrier. If she can come in a little dryer/a little more conditioned, Annie would consistently place in the top 5 at any show.
As for Iris Kyle- I've heard she was disqualified and I've heard she was penalized. Either way, Iris had MAJOR knots in the shoulders and glutes. What they were I can only guess, but it was enough for audience members to talk about them and for the judges to deem her not 'TOP 6' worthy. What does this mean for the future of women's BBing? Only time will tell.
Who says female bodybuilders don't have all the fun. They're doing it in this picture taken by GeneX at a hotel at the NPC Las Vegas female bodybuilding contest (ok, there's male, too, but we don't care about that). The photo has Annie Rivieccio and Kira Neuman jumping on the beds in their room!
In this video, pro female bodybuilder Lindsay Mulinazzi gets up in front of an audience and with some encouragement, curls 50 pounds 154 times. You have to see it to believe it.

Jennifer Gutierrez is showing her new body after reportedly being trained by Heather Armbrust, She's going to complete in the upcomming Las Vegas USA Female Bodybuilding contest. Her MySpace page is worth a visit: http://www.myspace.com/jenngutierrez
What we have here is an incredible body in the form of Shawna Walker, who's a trainer and female bodybuilder currrently located in the San Francisco Bay Area, and not far from GeneX, who took the photo.
In it, she shows her fantastic abs and overall cut and muscularly sexy body. Just wish she's show some teeth!
Ok folks. Here's more of Aleesha Young in this new -- as of this writing -- video. Keep in mind she's 23 which means she's got a lot of time to win a lot of contests! (Oh, and I hate the video music! Yikes.)
Ok. Before you say, "Hey, that was way back in Feb, March of this year" let me say, yes, you're right. But this photo I've not seen before, nor Miss Eason. It's striking in that it shows, well, her cut, buffed, sexy yet strong body and a natural smile. She has a kind of easy stance, but it also seems as if she's a bit shy with all of her training and that awesome MySpace page .
Ok.
This fomer Houston Texans' Cheerleader was recently called the "World's Fittest Model" at Bodybuilding.com.
This is Ms Olympia and Ms. International winner and famous fbb Iris Kyle at the NY Pro Show. She's also featured in this great video which shows her cut and sexy contest-winning form.
Michelle's a popular female bodybuilder with over 20 years of experience -- even though she doesn't look like it -- and has a great website which even has its own store. Michelle's pictured here at the 2008 NY Pro Show.
I had to post this photo because it shows just how common it has become for women to flex. It's the result of athletics, Title IX and the general advance of women in American society. And guys love it.
This is Sheena Bocciolone in a double biceps pose photo by Andrew Ducrow and in a video wher she beats a random dude in arm wrestling. (Say, why do these guys always look so dorky?)
Anyway, there's little information on Sheena Bocciolone as of this writing and no website or MySpace page as of this writing.
