Fitness America 2001 Regional: Milwaukee, WI

That would be a straddle hold... I'm not actually smiling, I'm really gritting my teeth in pain. hehe

 

This bikini used to have a playboy bunny on it, but I had that removed.  I believe in wearing MUCH more clothing than they do.....or something.

At this point, my face is hurting from smiling so long

 

The only thing the judges really liked about me.  I was the only girl who actually did several FULL one-arm pushups.

 

That's my back and my incredibly fake blonde hair.

 

This picture really just scares me.

 

2001 Women's Extravaganza 

This year I was invited to participate in the Fitness Strength Competition.  Of course I was no match for Cynthia Bridges, but it was fun anyway!

This is during the Mary-Christine Fashion Show.  We had bodybuilders, models, and us fitness girls participate.  You will NEVER see me in pink again.

During the introductions for the strength show...I think I was getting made fun of here.

So doing bicep curls was NOT easy after three months of not eating.  Needless to say I got last in this event.

Hi.  I'm Shana.  I'm wearing a $900 bikini.  Why am I on stage with this little thing?

Oh yeah, 13 one arm push ups...who's your daddy.

This is the top 5 line up for my class in the fitness competition.  

 

Hangin' out backstage.

 

More ladies backstage.

 

I drug Mike out to New York with me for the weekend...with his business skills, he got more attention than I did!  I'm still cuter though...

 

 

Me and Christine after the show...I'd like to pose for pictures...but I'd rather go eat!!!

 

 

 

This is the day after competition.  Mike and I hung out in New York City for the day...and I ate a LOT!  Anyway, this is me demonstrating my fitness skills on 42nd street.
