Erica Cordie, absolute crush!

(PS: Is not there, but i was mad about Catherine Holland too)

Catherine Holland is still very fit (you don't see moms with multiple children that fit very often!). Rather, it looks like she is off the PEDs.

Hayley Mcneff has to be the biggest disappointment. Had a lot of potential and it never went anywhere

If I remember correctly, I think I saw her featured in a documentary where she talked about how during her bodybuilding days she was in an abusive relationship with someone who was also in the bodybuilding world. Again, I could be recalling incorrectly, but I think part of her being a bodybuilder was an abusive partner who pushed her into harder training and cycles.

I remember she wound up going to school to be a counselor, and I think she has her degree and license now and is working as one, so good for her! I hope she is happy and finding enjoyment in her career and her life.

So many difficult choices. Cindy Phillips wasn't known as the Brittany Spears Of Bodybuilding for nothing back in the day. Gorgeous, blonde bombshell, girl next door looks combined with an incredible physique. And so young at the time too! Then there's Rene Marven who I remember her earliest days on Herbicepscam so I was able to witness her progression and transformations over the years. Even then she still had such a bubbly and charming personality. Nothing hotter than a girl who loves to pack on muscle and the most muscular is one of her signature poses. Finally there's Dani Reardon who came in during a time when Cindy Phillips was out of the game for seemingly forever. She was the "new" Cindy Phillips as far as I was concerned. Same deal. Beautiful blonde bombshell, girl next door qualities, and a jaw dropping physique. Only difference is that she had a natural charm and charisma to her which she very much always displayed. What's funny is that Cindy Phillips at her biggest would probably go toe-to-toe with Dani in her absolute prime in Physique.

> The correct answer is Katka Kyptova :)

She's the biggest regret so far, as far as names I forgot to include. Narrowing it down to 10 entries is harder than you might think. But she's easily a top 3 contender.

Ah, Katka. Probably the most shredded pecs I have ever seen on a female bodybuilder. Only ones who have come close to have the same shreddedness and striations to her pecs are Sarah Crail and Dani Reardon in her prime.

Jessica Williams (quick note, her middle name isn't actually "Booker," I think there is some confusion with another Jessica Williams)

. I remember her from her QueenStarfish youtube channel. I saw her go from a "thick" lifter when she was just starting out (I believe she also posted on the bodybuilding.com forums) to very rapidly gaining size and shredding down. She had one of the most amazing most muscular poses I have ever seen, and for a while she was even "campaigning" to bring the pose into bodybuilding competitions as a mandatory pose.

But unfortunately, she started to go away from bodybuilding when he father went through major health issues. I also think she went very hard on the PEDs and maybe also a little too quickly: her voice changed pretty significantly compared to her early videos and her jaw and facial structure also changed. She shut down her YouTube channel not long after she referenced her father's health on social media, and then she pretty much disappeared. I did stumble onto her Facebook profile, and it does look like she is doing well, but her lifting days are definitely behind her.

Yeah, if you look at the forum's Jessica Williams' page, it seems like two different women are sharing the same photo page? And I appreciate you mentioning the ol' Starfish channel, it was great. I haven't thought about the 'Queen Starfish' for a while. Hope things are going okay for her..

She seemed very earnest and authentic in those videos. I was always excited to see when she would post a new video.

This post reminded me of someone else I adored back then, but is blacklisted here, Chelsea Karabin aka Chelsealifts.

I agree. She had such an awesome off-season physique.

Jessica was so fun to interact with. I used to chat with her often and she always was so nice to her fans. I hope she’s doing well.
