Davana Medina, Jenny Lynn, Elaine Goodlad and Valerie Waugaman. My all time fave is the AMAZING Davana Medina 3 times Figure Olympia Champion 2003-2005. Unfortunately Davana had to withdraw from the 2006 competition due to illness and then retired from competition. 2006 was when I started training so was bitterly disappointed that she wasn't around for inspiration. Jenny Lynn on the other hand was right up there and very approachable (even from the other side of the world) I joined her fan club for 12 months and had 1 on 1 chats with her online. She also signed a Poster DVD and Photo for me and sent them over. The poster is framed and hangs in my hallway.
By the way perenially beautiful Elaine Goodlad is 40 years old!
I know what you're thinking - Women can't get these bodies without steroids. Let me tell you something, whether or not any pro body builder does or doesn't take performance enhancing drugs, these amazing muscles and incredible definition don't build by themselves. I have seen how hard these girls train and especially diet. Their presentation at competition time is an absolute science.
If you don't believe how hard they train, take a look at a couple of you tube postings like these. When I saw a similar leg workout that Jenny does with Charles Glass on her video "The Harder I Work The Luckier I Get" I could feel her pain and started to get a sympathy & oh so familiar sick in the tummy feeling you get when you train so hard.
