If you haven’t seen the January 2009 issue of FLEX magazine, you’re missing out on some kick ass shots of the current Ms. Figure Olympia Champ, Jennifer Gates. Here’s a look behind the scenes on the shoot with photographer Pavel Ythjall. Great work.
“Just Jenn” is a new feature to Hardbody.com. This section will provide insight, tips, pointers and more with current Ms. Figure Olympia Jennifer Gates. Jennifer still considers herself a newbie on the pro scene but her rise to the top didn’t happen overnight. Learn some of the things that helped make her one of the best figure competitors in the pro ranks. If you have a question for Jenn or would like her opinion on anything related to the fitness/figure industry you may do so on here or through her website, jenngates.com.
Hardbody.com Reader: I’m not a teenager any more and curious if you have any tips on how I can help my skin for a competition. I know diet and training but are there any products you’ve used that might help?
Jenn: YES! I was just talking about this topic with a friend of mine. The best advice I can give you is to drink plenty of water and watch your diet. Try not to let your weight fluctuate from show to show. I also like to pamper myself with facials and massages. Also, don’t over do it with the tanning. There is one product I use the last couple weeks before competitions and photoshoots though. I use a product called Ab-Solution Plus and it definitely helps tighten up my skin, especially those stubborn areas around my abs and butt. Don’t rely on this to create any miracles but I do think it works.
