2010 Overall Hawaii State/Paradise Cup Champ - Nikki Venzara

Last week I posted some one-day-out pictures of LBC Figure competitor Nikki Venzara, which you can find here. Well, the 2010 NPC Hawaii State/Paradise Cup Championships has now come and gone. And I'm pleased to say that Nikki took home top honours in both the Short Class and the Overall.

That now makes Nikki 2 for 2 in her young competitive career as she also took home top honours a couple months back in the Florida State Championships.

So a big congratulations to Nikki!

Nikki Venzara One Day Out Pictures

Thought I'd post up a couple shots of LBC client Nikki Venzara who came to me by way of IFBB Fitness Pro Sandi Stuart, who is incidentally in Hawaii with Nikki right now helping to put the finishing touches on her.

Nikki is definitely a competitor to watch out for in 2011. She's only 22 and already has some great development as you can see below. I don't think anyone can deny some serious potential here. Check out the delts and back.

Here she is one day out from her 2nd show (she won her first show - the NPC Florida State a couple months back). She is doing figure this weekend again, but watch out for this... read more 5 comments

Not only did she place 11th in... read more 6 comments

Congratulations to Chantal Milot at the 2010 CBBF Nationals

More congratulations are in order; this time to Canadian Figure competitor Chantal Milot who nailed a 5th place spot in this past weeksnd's CBBF National Fitness, Figure, Bikini & Masters Bodybuilding Championships

Incidentally, there were only THREE points separating places 3 through 5, so it was super, super close.

As well, it was Chantal's first time doing the CBBF Nationals as well. Not bad for your first shot. Congratulaions Chantal!

I have yet to find any pictures of this weekend's show but here are some pictures from Chantal's last show in July, where she's sporting some serious conditioning ...
