Devin Daniel

Devin Daniel was all set to have a spectacular career in gymnastics when something happened to her that unfortunately happens to a lot of gymnasts – she got hurt. A knee injury sidelined her for several years as a teenager. She became more active when she started going to the gym and working out, and she says that has been an addiction ever since. It helps her cope with life and is almost therapeutic for her.

Devin says she’s always been pretty muscular, and considering she stays busy as a fitness model she has to be careful not to add too much muscle. She does quite a bit of cardio, and keeps it pretty light (relative to the weights she lifts) when pumping iron. She likes to train hard, and says she just doesn’t get that feeling of accomplishment if she doesn’t really sweat and grind when she’s in the gym working out.

Carissa Monroe

Carissa Monroe is a 25 year old from Colorado Springs Colorado. She is a figure competitor, certified personal trainer, and fitness model. She’s a small gal at 5’2″ tall and only 98 lbs. She’s very trim and fit. Hey, dynamite comes in small packages, right? I would be interested in finding out more about her athletic background, and hopefully we’ll update when we hear how she does in her first competition.

Christine Pomponio-Pate Part 2

It’s been a few years since we talked about Christine Pomponio-Pate but she certainly hasn’t slowed down. She had her first child in 2007, and she was on the cover of Muscle & Fitness Hers in August of 2009. Christine was a soccer player for 10 years, but interestingly enough, it’s her upper body that has no equal in the competitive arena.

Maybe everybody has already heard about the horrible car accident she went through years ago. She survived a tremendous amount of damage to her face, and to look at how beautiful she is now it’s hard to believe any of that ever happened.

Laura London

Laura London is a tribute to fit moms everywhere. She is a 43 year old mother of three. She says she gained a good bit of weight with her children, and was unhappy with her body. She started the Fit For Life program and had great success until she injured her back. At that point, she stopped exercising and gained quite a bit of weight back. Finally, she had had enough, and she made drastic changes in her lifestyle, her diet, and her fitness routine. At this point, she is a terribly successful fitness competitor.

Lingerie Football

A profile of Romi Bean an NFL Cheerleader is about as close as we’ve come before to the sport of football. Until today that is. You can always count on FBB to mix it up a little. Just when you thought we were stuck on gym gals! It may be July, but football season is in full swing for some people. Lingerie Football players are the athletes we need!

I know it may sound a little hokey, but one look at these pictures will tell you
a) these girls are athletic (some of them look like they could squish my like a little caterpillar)
b) they are tough enough to throw, catch, block, and tackle
c) they are serious about what they do more lingerie football players

Minna Pajulahti

Minna Pajulahti is a gorgeous 25 year old fitness competitor from Finland. It is hard to keep up with Minna. She works as a flight attendant, teaches aerobics, and competes internationally as a member of a group called the Dream Team Dancers (she placed 2nd in last year’s World Championships in Japan). She competed in gymnastics for almost a decade, and has also been involved in cheerleading. She tore her ACL recently and that has proven a challenge that she never anticipated. Minna placed 2nd in her class at the 2010 Arnold Amateur Fitness Competition.

Jill Luckette

If you have any more info on Jill Luckette, give me a shout. The video is of Jill and Jay Cutler working out. She is apparently in some kind of hot bods contest. She looks to be about 5’8″ and 115 lbs. Some kind of fitness competitor?


Ashley Lynn Huffman

Ashley Lynn Huffman is a talented all-around athlete who I’m convinced will soon take the world by storm. She is a former Division 1 Champion heptathlete, and is seeking certification as a personal trainer. There’s nothing like being trained by somebody who has been there and done that. Injuries, nutrition, cross training, goals, find an elite athlete and they’ve been through just about anything a trainee is liable to encounter.

Sara Dusendang

Sara Dusendang is not our typical Fitness Babe. She won quite a bit of notoriety as a teen when she won the Miss Michigan Teen and made it to the top 5 at the Miss Teen USA Pageant in 1999. As a kid in Michigan, she grew up on a farm doing bunches of chores, working hard, and spending time outdoors. She won the 1998 National High School Rodeo Queen title. She placed second in the Miss Michigan USA in 2001. A cheerleader in college, Sara has always stayed fit, and is a certified personal trainer. She had a child in 2005, and since then has spent less time in the spotlight. She still works on occasion as a spokesperson and model. She graduated with a BAA in Public Relations, and a minor in Broadcast Journalism. Sara is 5’5″ tall, weighs about 112 lbs, and measures 36C-24-35.
