Every single woman in the physique industry puts in the time and effort to develop out-of-this-world bodies. No one has a GOOD body in the physique world. They are either very good, great, amazing, elite...and then they are those who are beyond adjectives and are in the world of their own. Tina Nguyen is one of those women that comes to mind. With an Instagram following of nearly 700,000 and a Facebook following of over 50,000, Tina is one of social media's most popular non-celebrity personalities. There are many people that say that with her comic-book like proportions and stunning beauty, the Figure Olympia title is inevitable. But it wasn't always the case for Miss Nguyen.
Believe it or not, Tina wasn't always the living comic-book woman she is today. There was a time where she was a party girl and had a pretty slim body. Not bad, but nothing to write home about, and something that most would probably see at a club 11 out of 10 times. But somewhere along the line, she decided to give weight training a try, and thank God she did! Her body went from okay to va-va-DAMN real quick, and the followers came quick, fast, and in a hurry. She also started to compete in the NPC Figure division in 2013, and it didn't take her long at all to get that IFBB pro card, which she did by winning the Figure C class in the NPC Nationals the following year. She has since competed in the Europa Dallas the past two years (2015 and 2016), placing in the top five at both. Some said she should have won both shows, and after seeing who was in front of her, we can't blame them one bit for feeling that way. But placing in the top five in your first two pro shows is nothing to sneeze at, though!

| Tina Nguyen as Kitana...FLAWLESS VICTORY! |
While she has dressed up as Mortal Kombat character Kitana during Halloween (and killed it, BTW), one would be hard-pressed not to see her as Chun-Li. Famous for her legs, Tina could easily be the part if Hollywood were to ever do a legit live-action version of Street Fighter. But regardless of if Hollywood ever gives her the call or not, we believe that the sky's the limit for Tina when it comes to the physique world. She has already done quite a few photoshoots since being part of the physique world, and we only expect more photoshoot opportunities and contests for her in the very near future. The scary thing about Tina is that despite looking insane already...she gets better and better each photoshoot and contest, which is bad news for her competitors. Tina Nguyen on the Olympia stage at this point is a matter of WHEN will it happen, not IF.
