Vivi Winkler Brazilian Fitness Model

Vivi Winkler is a Brazilian fitness model.

She was born in 1992. At the age of 21, she considered herself flabby, out of shape, and unhealthy. She started a fitness journey that won her many fans.

She is 5’7″ tall, and typically weighs between 115-125 lbs. Her Instagram page (you can find a link in our list here) has 2.2 million fans, so you could certainly call her a social media influencer.

She definitely seems to be a dramatic workout partner. Many of the videos I’ve seen of her feature her in apparent agony as she works her muscles. Case in point:

In her “defense”, she has some well-developed legs, and it’s not easy to build quads like that. I’m glad she’s willing to put that kind of effort into her workouts!

I couldn’t really find much in the way of competition history for Vivi. I see some documentation that she won second place in the Liga Carioca Bodybuilding Championships, but couldn’t really confirm that. Maybe competition isn’t really her thing.

CarrieJune Anne Ace

As with many of the ladies we profile here on FitBabesBlog, CarrieJune Anne grew up heavily involved in athletics. Track and Field, gymnastics, and cheerleading were all a big part of her life.

Her birthdate is February 7th, 1996. She was born in New Jersey. It wasn’t until she was a sophomore in high school that she started working out with weights at home. It wasn’t long before she joined a gym, and started dedicating even more time to working out.

She is a popular trainer, and is followed by 1.2 million people on her Instragram page. Her claim to fame is probably her tiny waist and her giant quads. She claims that she made huge gains once she dialed in her training and nutrition specific for her body.

She tends to carb cycle, and as you can imagine she is very careful with her diet, nutrition, and calorie intake.

Her name is pretty unique, and she’s actually married to a guy named Steve Ace.

She is 5’4″ tall, and her weight fluctuates between 125-135 lbs.

She started her own fitness apparel brand, and presumably spends much of her time (when she’s not working out) running her business and building her brand.

Her abs are basically legendary, and her tiny waist combined with her massive glutes and quads are amazing:

Here’s a look at her glutes. I can’t imagine how much time she has put into sculpting them:

CarrieJune’s flexibility is a byproduct of the time she spent in gymnastics and cheerleading as a kid:

Here’s a shot of CarrieJune wearing a thong bikini:

And then finally, how about a huge video of her! [I have updated to a new, working video.]

Her thick musculature somewhat reminds me of Cindy Landolt‘s.

Misc Updates

A number of you have contacted me letting me know that image links in posts from several years ago are broken. That’s been the case for awhile, and it’s very annoying and time consuming to repair.

I spent some time updating posts, fixing images etc.

I fixed and updated the Penny Price post.

I also fixed the images in the Rachel McLish post.

All of the January 2013 posts have been repaired.

Amanda Barnhart Crossfit Athlete

Amanda Barnhart white shortsAmanada Barnhart has been in Crossfit for a few years now. I see competitive results for her going back to 2014.

Her profiles list her as 5’7″ tall and 151 lbs. She is currently 26 years old. She works as a physical therapist.

She has around 21k followers on her Instagram account these days:
https://www.instagram.com/amandajbarnhart/?utm_source=ig_embed

Amanda Barnhart muscular armsShe has what may be the world’s crappiest youtube channel, and I will only link to it reluctantly:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNoV3aOupv5lZ_wItsbY_KQ

Amanda has been athletic all her life. As a child, she practiced gymnastics. In high school, she swam, played volleyball, and ran track. When she went to college, she swam for a D1 school.

Amanda Barnhart celebratingWhen preparing for a contest, Amanda does quite a bit of volume, which is not unusual for Crossfit athletes who oftentimes compete for the title “fittest on earth”. She loves heavy cleans. Her maxes are listed as:
squat 315 lb
clean and jerk 230 lb
deadlift 390 lb
snatch 195 lb

Amanda Barnhart absI don’t know many guys who can deadlift 400 lbs, much less women. Amanda is definitely strong. At such a young age, she had incredible potential if she can minimize her injuries.

Unfortunately, with Crossfit, it really is “mimimize”. It’s a sport notorious for injuries. It’s less a question of if you’re going to get injured, and more about when. I guess you can say that for any top-level sport and athlete.

sexy Amanda BarnhartLately I’ve heard that Amanda has been training with some of the sport’s greatest, including Brooke Wells, Camille Leblanc-Bazinet, Katrin Davidsdottir, and Ehea Schuerch. I would think that will pay positive dividends in her performance.

Amanda was married a couple of years ago to Wesley Barnhart. I think they both currently live in the Ohio area.

Heidi Powell

Heidi Powell selfieHeidi Powell recently placed 5th in the bikini division of the 2018 IFBB Dennis James Pro. I think it’s about time we do an in-depth profile of her here on FBB!

The fact that she currently has 439k followers on her Instagram feed speaks to how popular she has become.

I would definitely classify her as a “celebrity trainer”, not in the sense that she trains celebrities, more like she is a trainer who is a celebrity.

Heidi Powell Bio

She was born in Phoenix Arizona in 1980.

She and her husband Chris Powell began hosting the television show Extreme Weight Loss in 2011. That was really her first launch into fame.

In 2015, she published the book Extreme Transformation: Lifelong Weight Loss in 21 Days.
It has sold thousands of copies, and gets 4-star reviews on Amazon.

Heidi Powell absShe has her own clothing and accessory line that she likes to associate with a positive body image. She uses the tagline “Perfectly Imperfect”.

Heidi has four kids, and her marriage to Chris is her second. She is a certified personal trainer, with both ACE and CrossFit certifications. As of 2018, she is 36 years old.

Contest History

It appears as though Heidi began competing in 2015. She may have started before that, but that’s what shows up when I research her history. She has placed as high as 1st and as low as 17th.

2018 IFBB Dennis James Pro 5th Place

Bio

Frida Paulsen Stern bikiniNot shown in her contest history above is the fact that Frida’s first bikini competition was back in 2014.

Not unlike many of the fit babes we run across on this website, Frida was always very active and athletic.

At the time of her first contest, she was still playing competitive soccer. This seemed to hinder her results on the stage. So she made the commitment to give bikini and figure competitions 100% of her attention. She set a goal of winning her pro card within a 2-year time period.

She was able to achieve that pro card milestone in 2016, and has never looked back. I’m sure she still thinks of soccer fondly, but still spends all her time on that intense bikini competition schedule.

Frida Paulsen Stern flirtsShe then set a goal of qualifying for the 2017 Olympia. It took her 5 additional shows, but she was finally able to accomplish that.

Now she has set a goal of placing in the top 5 in the Olympia. I wouldn’t count her out. She’s obviously very goal-driven, and so far literally nothing has been able to stand in her way. It will be interesting to see how she finishes in 2018.

Interview

I have reached out to Frida asking for an interview. Hopefully I’ll be able to secure something, and if so I’ll post it here for all of you to read.

Stats

Frida Paulsen Stern blue eyesHeight: 5’7”
Weight: 125-135 lbs
Age: Born 1994

Marital statu: unknown. Given the fact that she competes constantly, I can’t imagine she has time to date, much less be married!

Videos

I don’t think Frida has her own youtube channel. But she is tremendously popular, and there are all kinds of videos of her out there. I have pasted a couple of my favorites below. Continue reading “Frida Paulsen Stern”

Fit Instagram Gals Update

If I were smart, I would build the table I’m using to update Instagram girls in html instead of excel, and provide you guys with some clickable links so you can easily check out your favorites. This instead of the gimpy jpg I’m providing below 🙂

Anyway, Jen Selter is still leading the pack with an incredible 11.4M followers as of today. Although she’s in second, Ana Cheri seems to be coming on strong. She has 10.3M followers, up substantially since the last time I looked. That makes me think within another month or two, Ana will pass Jen in popularity.

I can see why. Ana has been posting some racy photos lately. I updated her page with a few examples of what I’m talking about.

But… I need to add a few!

Michelle Lewin = 12.3M followers
Svetlana Bilyalova = 5.4M followers
Paige Hathaway = 1.4M followers
Alice Matos = 1.6M followers
Tana Cogan = 1.5M followers
Jen Heward = 810k followers
Dani Reardon = 135k followers
Jenna Renee Webb = 106k followers
