Kelly Dobbins

Kelly Dobbins is a female bodybuilder who has really had two different careers. She started weightlifting to help her get and stay in shape. Many of the people who worked out at her gym were competitive bodybuilders, which influenced her goals and her results. She started competing in the 80’s and 90’s but sort of dropped out. She went back at it in 1998 and started winning. Kelly also happens to be a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Kelly Dobbins

Ana Tigre

Every now and then I make a blog post here on FBB that I’m pretty much certain will viral. Sometimes this is because I find myself so witty, humorous, and charming. Uh, usually it’s because I’m profiling an incredibly hot babe that nobody will be able to resist. I’ll let you guess which one this is, but I’ll give you a hint: Ana Tigre.

I tried to limit myself to just a few pics of Ana Tigre, but that would’ve required much more self restraint than any normal man is capable of. So I whittled down the 150 to like 13. more Ana Tigre

Hot Chicks in Bikinis

My, my – there is just something about hot chicks in bikinis isn’t there? It’s a little bit like naughty lingerie except women are actually supposed to wear it out in public. I don’t know who thought of this idea, but kudos to them!

Bikinis became popular back in the 1960, driven mainly by Hollywood and the big screen. It’s silly to attribute modern bikinis to the likes of Jantzen or French fashion designers considering there are plenty of statues and paintings of the Greek Goddess Venus from the old Roman era showing her strutting her stuff in a bikini.

I grew up drooling over Princess Leia in her shiny gold bikini in the Return of the Jedi, and man I’ve only grown more fond of them since. Here at FBB, we love paying homage to hot chicks in bikinis, and you our devoted readers/visitors are the primary beneficiaries.

There are tiny bikinis and conservative ones, fuzzy ones, sleek ones, sporty ones like what we see in the Olympics, the list is endless. It was reported that almost a billion and a half dollars worth of bikinis are sold every year. This make sense, because we all know ladies have to buy new ones every year, aren’t ever satisfied with the fit or the look of the one they have, and will sometimes buy two or three because they can’t decide on a favorite. The average bikini costs $40 or more. Some women are shameless about buying used bikinis, which I find interesting since that’s not much different than buying used underwear (which has never seemed terribly popular). Fitness models frequently buy, sell, and trade posing suits, bikinis, workout wear, etc so why not bikinis?

Bikini contests seemed to be a legitimate source of income for chicks who had it and didn’t mind showing it a little. And this was before the NPC Bikini division was started. At this point, girls have a great chance to have a classy bikini showing and help promote their fitness modeling and spokesperson efforts.

It’s not so much what bikinis reveal as what they cover up. Hot chicks know what to leave up to the imagination, and what they show is always oh so tantalizing. Sexy bikinis are great, but I’m always more entranced by the bodies that are in them. We have to be thankful that we have the modern bikini to celebrate, but just as importantly we have to appreciate what has come about as a result. Where would we be without the bikini wax, bikini contest, and the mankini?

Asian Fitness Models

Asian fitness models seem to be a rather hot topic in the industry these days. Although we were “smart” enough to devote our own category awhile back, we really haven’t discussed what’s going on with this trend. Well it’s time to tackle the topic.

There are a couple of reasons why publishers would specify Asian models for a production. Some efforts simply require a specific ethnicity. So if you are producing a commercial for a toothpaste branded in Spanish and offered mainly only to markets in Mexico, you would most likely hire a Hispanic model. Same thing for Asian-market items.

In other cases, the publisher is simply catering to the public’s desires. More specifically more on Asian fitness models
