Gal Ferreira (Glauce Ferreira) - Brazilian Fitness Model

Gal Ferreira by Pedro Nossol - http://www.pedronossol.com.br/

This beautiful and built young lady is Brazilian IFBB Pro Gal Ferreira.
Gal started out at the age of six in ballet, then moved into gymnastics.

She graduated in 1998 from the Federal University of Minas Gerais with a degree in Physical Education, and works as a personal trainer.
Her hobbies include ballet, soccer, African dance, gymnastics and aerobics.

Gal is also married to legendary bodybuilder Dorian Yates.

I know she has been in competitions in other countries (she won the IFBB South American Bodyfitness and IFBB World Bodyfitness Championships), but the only US competition I can find is the 2008 IFBB Arnold Classic Bodybuilding, Fitness And Figure Contest where she came in 9th place.

Kristal Marshall - IFBB Bikini Pro

This isn’t my first write up on the lovely Kristal Marshall by a long shot.
Back when she was in the WWE, I did several write up on her connected with wrestling.
But Kristal left the WWE, had a baby, and is now officially an IFBB Bikini Pro.

Kristal was born on November 11, 1983 in Los Angeles, California and you may know of her boyfriend (and the father of her baby) former collegiate amateur wrestler, former pro wrestler and mixed martial arts fighter Bobby Lashley.
(Bobby and Kristal were married in 2008, but split in April of 2010, but according to Kristal, they are still friends)

Before going to work for the WWE, Kristal competed in the 2004 Miss California pageant, she was a model for Deal or No Deal (she was the opening week model for case number five in season one) , she appeared in music videos by 50 Cent and Ma$e and was a Barker Beauty on The Price Is Right.

Kristal got into the WWE through the 2005 Raw Diva Search (she finished fourth), and the WWE liked what they saw, and Kristal was signed to a developmental contact and sent to Deep South Wrestling for training.

In December 2005, she joined the SmackDown! Roster as a backstage correspondent, but eventually made her way into the ring, having feuds with Jillian Hall, Ashley Massaro and Layla El before being released by the WWE in 2007.

She and Bobby made a few brief appearances in TNA, but nothing really came of that.



But now, as I said, Kristal is an IFBB Bikini Pro, she is looking amazing and she has done quite well for herself so far in competition....

2009 NPC Arnold Amateur Championships - 2nd Place
2009 NPC USA Bodybuilding & Figure Championships - 1st Place
2010 IFBB New York Pro Bodybuilding & Bikini Championships - 4th Place

Female Fitness Model, Jennifer Nicole Lee

This is the third time Jennifer Nicole Lee has shown up on this blog.
Heck, I could probably do a whole blog on just her.
Besides having an amazing physique, she has this animal intenstiy in her pictures.
I guess that's what got her the nickname "La Tigre".
Not content to just appear on the covers of over 30 magazines as a fitness model, Jennifer is also celebrity trainer, lifestyle and wellness expert and author.
Of course if you know anything about Jennifer, you have heard the story of how she lost 80 pounds after the birth of her children and got into the shape she's in today.
Which is incredible.

Jennifer is the official spokesperson for Ab Circle Pro, and she will be making two appearances on HSN, Sunday August 9th at 9:00 am, 2:00 pm and 9:00 pm EST and again on Monday August 10th at 9:00 am, and 8:00 pm EST.

Megan Thomas

This lovely lady is a personal trainer,fitness model and NPC figure competitor, MMA fighter and mother!
How does she fit all that in?
I have no idea.
But you know what?
Her child can go up to the other kids on the playground and say "My Mom can beat up your Mom! And your Dad, and your Brother...."
I mentioned Megan on my Female MMA blog, but I thought she needed an entry here as well.

Watch for this young lady.

Jackie Roberts - Tri Fitness Athlete

Usually the ladies featured on here are well rounded.
But Jackie Roberts takes that to another level.
She is a FAME Bikini Model Pro, Women's Tri-Fitness Athlete, ON/ABB Sponsored Athlete, fitness model, swimwear model and a personal fitness trainer.
And Jackie graduated Washington State University with a major in Early Childhood Education and a minor in Spanish.
She's competed in Bodybuilding, Fitness and Figure competitions.
But that probably seems tame next to her love of competing in Women's Tri-Fitness challenges.
These events usually consist of a Fitness Event ( they perform a a maximum 2-minute routine, and are judged on strength moves, flexibility, endurance, choreography and overall performance and presentation), Fitness Skills (box jump, bench press and a shuttle run), Obstacle Course ( pulling out all the stops here with a 10 foot Wall, Running Grid, Incline/Decline Monkey Bars, Balance Beam, 15 foot Cargo Net, Shuttle Run, 2 Low Hurdles, Steeple chase jump over water, Sprint and Under and Over Bar) and finally an optional Grace/Physique round.
Is that good enough for you?

Grace Rivera - Fitness Competitor

Born in Puerto Rico and raised in Brooklyn New York, the beautiful Grace Rivera originally joined Bally Fitness just to get in shape.

Fitness Model and Figure Competitor Aeryon Bela Ashlie

Aeryon Bela Ashlie is a Personal Trainer,Fitness Model and Figure Competitor.
Aeryon has fitness in her blood, as her father was an amateur bodybuilder and her mother was a figure skating coach.
I haven't been able to find any current info on Aeryon, so I don't know if she is still actively competing or not.

Fitness model Marzia Prince

This is one of those fitness models I could devote an entire blog to.
Marzia Prince was born in Dallas, Texas.
She is a fitness model, but she has a LOT more cred than that.
Mariza is a (take a deep breath) Cooper Certified Personal Trainer, a Physical Fitness Specialist, a Pre/Postnatal Fitness Instructor, trained in the Biomechanics of Resistance Training, a Fitness Specialist for Older Adults (65+), she has her Nutrition Certification and is CPR Certified!
That's besides being drop dead gorgeous!
Did I mention that back in May she won the The Lyzabeth Lopex Fame Classic Bikini Competition?
And she's also the magazine model for Gaspari Nutrition.
I wonder if I left anything out?
Oh yeah, her sister is a model also, Lisa Chandler aka Alizia Gutierrez.

You can see more Marzia here.

Fitness Model: Rachel Robertson

This beautiful fitness model was in MuscleMag International.
And she is a former lifeguard.
As with a lot of fitness models from the 80s and 90s, she seems to have just disappeared.
Some go on to become personal trainers or even in some cases doctors.
But some I just can't find any trace of.

Pauline Nordin - IFBB Fitness Competitor

This striking young lady is Pauline Nordin.
She is an IFBB fitness competitor, pro figure athlete, fitness model, certified fitness trainer and journalist.
Pauline was born on July 23rd, 1982 in Ystad, Sweden.
She was the Swedish trainer in the version of the TV show Biggest Loser and she was in the pilot for Sunset Tan on E!
Pauline has also been in and on the cover of several magazines, among them Oxygen, BODY and Ironman.
She began training in 1999 and began competing in 2002.
This young lady has maybe one of the most perfect sleek overall looks.
Pauline has competed in the 2007 IFBB Colorado Pro/Am Classic Bodybuilding And Figure Contest, the 2007 IFBB California Pro Figure Championships, the 2007 IFBB Pittsburgh Pro Figure Championships, the 2006 IFBB Europa Super Show, the 2006 IFBB California Pro Figure, the 2006 IFBB Pittsburgh Pro Figure and the 2006 IFBB San Francisco Pro.

Her husband Pavel Ythjall is a freelance director, d.o.p and still photographer.
And a very lucky man!

Monica Brant, Fitness Legend?

It's been a while since we've had a Monica Brant entry, so I though we were overdue.
This lady has creds that go from a win at the 1991 Fitness USA Preliminary, to placing 7th at the 2007 Figure Olympia.
And unlike a lot of other female fitness models from the 90's, she hasn't disappeared.
Her website, http://www.monicabrant.com/, is still active and growing.
Is it too early to apply the term " fitness legend"?

Marie Nelson - Fitness Model

I did a write up on fitness model Marie Nelson awhile back on my Most Beautiful Women blog, but Blogger decided it was evil so it's gone now.
So here she is again, but I still can't find anything on this beautiful lady.
Probably one of the prettiest women on the fitness scene back then.
