In terms of past Fbbs, Cory Everson has always been my biggest inspiration. She's the perfect combination of beauty, muscularity, and femininity. She represents the Glory Days of Women's BB.
Lynn Conkwright was also a great inspiration to me when I was younger. She was a Ms. Olympia competitor in the early 1980s and my gymnastics coach in the late 1980s. She always encouraged me to develop an interest in BB and was part of the reason I joined my first gym when I was 16, during my off-season from gymnastics.
