Joan had competed in fitness competitions in 1996, but because of her size, she usually didn't place well.
(She probably would have been better off aiming at straight up bodybuilding)
Despite that, she still got to the New York City regional level of the Fitness America competition in 1996.
She was trained by legendary Wladek "Killer" Kowalski and actually made her wrestling debut in 1995.
On April 20, 2016, Chyna was found dead at her home in Redondo Beach, California.
