Gina Trochiano
I really love Gina Trochiano’s story. She was very active growing up, participating in cheerleading, gymnastics, and competitive dance. After graduating from college, she started working in Manhattan, where she would literally run to work and home every day. Because she was so fit, it was a natural progression for her to start her own personal training business. She was lifting weights more and more and noticed big changes in her physique. She decided to compete in a Firgure show in 2007 and the game was on. She was only in three shows before she earned her Pro card. This is basically unheard of. Some people have to toil along for what seems like forever, while some add muscle and learn the intricacies of tanning, dieting, posing more quickly. But three shows is fast.
Gina is a great “model” of an IFBB Figure Pro. Just take an attractive woman with great curves, good complexion, pretty face, sprinkle in about 75% more muscle than “usual” and bam you have Gina. Click the link to see photos… I’m sure you’ll agree! Continue reading “Gina Trochiano”
Jessica Benton
A fitness model based in North Carolina, Jessica Benton is also a national level Fitness and Figure Competitor in the NPC. She stands 5’8″ and weighs about 135 lbs. As a teenager, she ran track, cheered, and took dance lessons. Jessica currently coaches competitive cheerleading.
Irina Kiselev
Irina Kiselev was born in Moscow Russia. She is 5’3″ tall and 123 lbs. As you can see from the photos, she manages to bring a very feminine and almost feline quality to the media with quite a sprinkle of muscle and fitness. Irina currently lives in Colorado, and tends to hang out with Heather Mae French. She has done a number of photo shoots with John Stutz, one of the premier fitness photographers in the business. Irina is a fitness model and figure competitor, but I didn’t find many recent contest results. She did win her class in the 2009 NPC Cyto Charge Colorado State Figure Championships.
