I remember a girl flexing in a T-Mobile display a while back. They should use some women with guns!

At the H.E.B. in Houston when I was with Melissa Dettwiller and Tatiana Anderson, they had this banner hanging up!

I agree with you completely. Seeing someone like the girl in the banner doing that, or seeing a famous model doing aerobics, doesn't IRRITATE me, but there's nothing GREAT about it either. Why not ask someone with arms that were MADE for such a picture, like an FBB, or at the very least, a fitness competitor?

I agree, too. At least put a fit looking person on there - not just some skin and bones model. I like it better w/ Kristy Hawkins on the Banner. That was good!

Actually, I'm as attached to "skin and bones" models as I am to FBBs. But, again, I just don't see the attraction in seeing them lift dumbbells with their very slim arms, or flexing them. That's where an FBB is attractive! And the more developed the arms, the better (especially when it comes to the dumbbells).

ive been told im too musclar and big

but i dont think im that BIG compared to some BIG FBB

so it really depends on the company and what they are looking for...

same goes for the fitness mag...some of those gurls do crash diets and call themselves fit...

there are soo many FBB, fitness and figure gurls that could fill those requirements...

Now that's what I'm talking about!
