It’s often challenging for competitors outside of the United States to get the same amount of publicity as those living in the states. This is largely because the NPC competitions offer competitors an opportunity to compete and get noticed before achieving IFBB Pro status. One event that offers competitors from all over the world a chance to compete on U.S. soil is the Arnold Amateur. One competitor who participated in 2008 Arnold will be making her IFBB Pro debut this weekend in Phoenix. Swedens’ Linda Fodor won the A class that year and before that notched a second place finish at the World Championships.
One year ago this time Linda was pregnant and in March of 2009 she gave birth to a beautiful little girl. She’s since received her IFBB Pro card and will be making the trek across the globe for her pro debut. She’s shed 67 pounds since the birth of her baby and built an impressive physique in the process.
Today Linda will travel 16 hours to compete in the figure competition. Every competitor wants to win and I’m certain Linda is no different. She’s certainly won the respect and admiration of many by what she’s already accomplished. Losing the amount of weight she has, preparing for a show with a child less than a year old AND traveling across the globe… WOW! Congratulations Linda, you’re already a winner for this amazing accomplishment. You can read more about Linda on siouxcountry.com. Safe travels and good luck in your first pro show.
