Fitness Competitor - Monica Brant-Peckham

Full Name: Monica Brant-Peckham
Birthday: October 26
Place of Birth: Ft. Hood, Texas
Current state of Residence: Texas
Occupation: Fitness competitor, Figure competitor, personal trainer, and fitness model.
Marital Status: Married.
Height: 5'4"

Monica Brant (born October 26, 1970) is an IFBB professional figure competitor and a former fitness competitor.

Originally born in Ft. Hood, Texas and raised on a 20 acre ranch in a small town outside of San Antonio called Castroville. Her mother is a professional horse training business and Monica started learning how to help her around the stables, riding and showing ponies and horses since the age of 5. By the time she was 14, she was giving riding lessons and training horses on her own with occasional advice from her mom. Along with volleyball and track in high school, she competed in many events: Western Pleasure, barrels and pole bending, English Pleasure, dressage, and Hunter/Jumper.

After Monica graduated, her love of horses took her to a fine arts college in Fulton, MO, where she studied basics and equestrian science for her first year. Unable to return for further studies in Missouri, Brant took classes at San Antonio College in Texas, and gave riding lessons at nearby stables. She also did promotional work for Budweiser, waitressed, and competed in bikini contests for extra funds.

In 1991, Monica started lifting weights with a friend and saw a photo of Marla Duncan winning a national competition. Her beauty and physique impressed her enough that she wanted to try what she was doing - Fitness Competitions. Up until 1995 she only competed for fun, not as a money making career. In 1994 she was honored with a Muscle & Fitness cover. This helped Monica realize that she had potential to earn some actual money in the fitness industry. She kept competing and in April of '95 moved to the Los Angeles area. Once she arrived, Brant dove into what would become her career and competed in the IFBB organization two to three times per year.

After competing four times, in 1998, she won her first and only Fitness Olympia and made number 45 on covers of magazines, books, and calendars worldwide. Brant says that she had a wonderful time traveling across the country and internationally, and have met some really incredible people everywhere. After placing second twice after her 1998 victory, Monica retired from fitness competition citing the demand on gymnastics in order to win were too great for her.

Monica Brant had lasik surgery performed by Dr. Glenn Kawesch.

Monica returned to competition in 2003 with the announcement that figure competition would be part of the sport of bodybuilding.

She graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a BA in English and a Secondary Teaching Certification, and earned certification as a personal trainer from the Cooper Institute in Dallas. In the mid-1990s, her interest in powerlifting led her to try her hand in competition. She won first place in her first two powerlifting appearances, and began to consider competing in other fields. By the early 2000s she had been successful in sporting challenges and turned to bodybuilding, along with fitness and figure competition.

In 2001, Miller began competing in events for the NPC, an affiliate of the IFBB and the largest amateur bodybuilding organization in the United States.

Female Bodybuilder - Cathy LeFrancois

Cathy LeFrancois (formerly Priest) is a professional female bodybuilder and figure competitor from Canada.

Cathy LeFrancois was born on February 12, 1971 in Amqui, Quebec. She started figure skating at age six, but after two years she switched to speed skating, which she found more satisfying. She eventually won five medals in the Quebec provincial championships, an accomplishment that has not been equalled since. Cathy attended Notre-Dame-de-Foy in Quebec.

Cathy earned her pro card in 1995 when she won the overall title at the CBBF Canada Cup, and made her pro debut at the Jan Tana Classic later that year. At a height of 5'2", she competed exclusively as a lightweight once weight classes were introduced in pro shows in 2000. Her best achievement as a professional was winning the lightweight class at the 2003 Ms. International.

Cathy married bodybuilder Lee Priest on July 1, 2000; they separated in 2005. After 2003, she retired from bodybuilding and transitioned to figure competition, competing in her first figure contests in 2005. In late 2006, she switched back to bodybuilding.
