I've known Jennifer and Carlos since the second day they moved to Los Angeles. We met at an LA Tri Club 1st Thursday Social, the Thursday after I finished my first Ironman, Ironman Coeur d'Alene in June of 2010!!!

Since then, Jennifer and Carlos have both completed Ironmans (swim 2.4 miles, bike 112 miles and then do a full marathon of 26.2 miles) and now, to fulfill their next phase on their "bucket list" they both decided to enter a bikini/physique/figure competition.


They both decided to hire a coach in order to build up muscle mass, to figure out a nutrition plan and nope, they didn't just hire any one at the gym. Through luck, chance,  or fate they met and contacted none other than 8 time, yes eight-tie winner of the  Ms. Olympia title, the highest achievement in professional female body building---Lenda Murray!!!!

 When Jennifer met Lenda, Jennifer weighed 126 pounds.  Lenda said that she'll get Jennifer into "competition weight" of, take a guess? An unbelievably low 105 lbs.  How could Jennifer lose the weight when she had no excess fat to begin with?   She was trim and slim from the get go.   How would Jennifer loose just over 20 pounds on a 4"10' frame Just three days before the competition, I photographed Jennifer and she weighed 106 pounds. Y'up, she lost 20, yes 20, yes twenty, pounds!!!! WOW WOW WOW!!!!
