Beautiful Bodies @Tampa Pro 2017

Best show so far this year! So many beautiful ladies with their oh so beautiful bodies...

I'm pretty sure the above forum poster was referring only to the Female Bodybuilding ladies with their oh so beautiful Female Bodybuilder bodies, but nevertheless I'm going to quote him and apply it to the whole damn show. From Elise Pecini, Bikini winner - surely only the most militant female muscle fan could be immune to her considerable (Brazilian) charms - to Tischa Thomas, bigger than the majority of the men competing at the show, Tampa was a serious feast for female muscle lovin' eyes.

Today, we proffer some of the tastier dishes for your viewing pleasure.

FIGURE

The ever classy, ever gorgeous Maria Luisa Baeza Diaz won the Figure class, with the Latin charms of Odalys Ferreira (left) in 5th and Michele Pinto in 4th the other standout swoons. How the air must get sucked out of the room when any of these three walk in. How much must they make other, "ordinary" women feel inadequate with their long long legs and muscles. So superior. And it may just be me projecting my fantasies and all, but I reckon - see how damn proud they look - they know it, and LOVE it.

MEANWHILE, IN A TAMPA HOTEL ROOM...

A beautifully bronzed Virginia prepares to create some shock and awe.

FITNESS

Myriam Capes (above) was the Tampa champ in the Fitness class, and that, if I may say so, is a damn sexy position to be able to get into. Nice of her to share it with us, don't you think? It is always slightly frustrating when there isn't video of the all-action Fitness routines, so big up fbbspy for capturing a couple from this particular show.

Check out (most of) 4th place Sara Kovach's breathless performance.



MEANWHILE, NOT FAR FROM THE VENUE...

Female muscle photographers suffer for their art.

Honestly, they must tape it down or something, tie a knot in it perhaps? How do they manage to hold the damn camera steady? How do they manage to get through their contest shooting days in the same pair of trousers they put on that morning?

Hardest job in the world.


PHYSIQUE

Many of Swell's (and yours, if the Hot and Hard 100 voting is anything to go by) favourites were flexing it in Physique in Tampa. Rosie Harte (5th) flew the flag for the UK in her usual sexy style (that's her bum in the top of the two pictures "not far from the venue", by the way) and Diana Schnaidt was, as always, at or near the top of the (fictitious) Best Abs in Show table even though she was only awarded 12th. Gorgeous Cris Goy Arellano broke into the top 10 at only her second pro show, but the glorious Katie Lee was, inexplicably, once again way down in the placings.

Less familiar, perhaps, but still making me get my swoon on were Keri Ann Heitzman (magnificent, and in good company in the "unplaced" section with Katie); Shawna Pringle for the first time in about 3 years, also unplaced; over 40 pro Isabelle Jackson who won her pro card at the NPC Universe this year and who, yes, you guessed it, was also unplaced; and the sultry Jenna Reid, a high-flying 4th.

MEANWHILE, IN A TAMPA RESTAURANT...

Honestly, too many Physique beauties to mention here today. I'd need a week to cover them all. Here's just two more, covered-ish - Mikaila Soto and Nicole Mudafort. No doubt the star attractions wherever they rock up in those outifts.

BODYBUILDING

Yes, and although we did smear the Pro Tan of the FBB class yesterday, we might as well go deeper into the big girls' class while we're still in Tampa. Angela Rayburn (12th), happy Hanna Hallman (9th), Jay Fuchs (5th) and Dawn Alison (15th) brought considerable beef to the Tampa stage, with forum fans feeling that "Jay was robbed", and that "seeing Dawn Alison live would give me a woody for a week".

Nice.

AND MEANWHILE, AS THE SUN SETS...

Aftershow party anyone?

Enjoy!
