One of the things I hate about Pinterest, Instagram, Tumbler etc is that they have pretty much eliminated the ability to find out who a model is. Like this lovely lady that can go from very attractive to very fit with a single flex. I had no idea who she was and a Google Image Search just turned up sites and generic hashtags. The closest I could get was "Haley @xnrg.fit" But I finally tracked her down after a long while and her name is Haley Almeida. https://www.instagram.com/xnrg.fit/ Winner!
Did you know that WWE NXT Diva Dana Brooke's real name is Ashley Mae Sebera and before she joined the WWE, she was well into a fitness career?
Ashley was born on November 29th, 1988 in Seven Hills, Ohio, and started out as a gymnast.
An ankle injury made her switch from gymnastics and go into fitness competition and bodybuilding.

This is 46 year old fitness expert, writer, speaker, fitness model and mother of three children, Kim Dolan Leto. I think what I just wrote and these pictures are really all you need to know.
This is Brazilian IFBB figure athlete Denise Rodrigues Atleta. I used to accuse Canada of trying to take over the beautiful women scene. But I swear Brazil seems to be churning out and more of the most beautiful fitness women in the world.
Here we have another gorgeous Brazilian fitness beauty, Lara Sulianno. It seems Brazil is really contributing to the female fitness scene these days and I don’t think anyone minds one bit. Lara is muscular to be sure, but she also has that sleekness that is kind of rare these days. And interestingly enough it seems I usually see it in Brazilian fitness stars. She was born in Fortaleza, Brazil and currently lives in Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro. Lara is married to Andre Benkei who is the Head Master at Benkei MMA System.

This beautiful young lady is Korean Body Fitness competitor Byeon Hyeon-Seon.
Now if what I got from Google Translate was correct, she is also a fitness model and fitness trainer.
I have mentioned here before that in other countries, Body Fitness is pretty much what we call Figure here in the US.
And Byeon has that almost perfect blend of size, definition and grace that defines those types of competitions.
A while back I made mention of not seeing many red haired fitness models and then I ran across Véronique Morin, Andrea Palazvelos and Paige McFarland.
And now I can add Chelsea Riera to that list.
Maybe I should just do a blog devoted to redhead fitness women.
Nah...I tried that with red haired wrestlers and it didn't work too well.
I guess the Gingers will just have to share.
Chelsea is five foot six, 125 pounds and is from Phenix City, Alabama.
Besides being a fitness model, she is also a personal trainer and she manages a sales and marketing company.
Sometimes I find a picture online and think "Well this is it. I might as well quit now because I'll never find a picture better than this".
That was the case when I ran across this picture of Andreia Brazier.
Andreia was born in Brazil, but she's based in London, England.Her husband Tom Brazier and her run a personal training company called Total Body Conditioning.
You can check out her Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/AndreiaBrazierPhysiqueModel
