ALL PHOTOS BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS
Ultimate Hardbods loves to feature some of the hottest women in the bodybuilding industry from the past, present, and future. We definitely love to showcase those that for some reason may have not been given the props they deserved back in the day. We want to talk about a woman that had during her competition days some of the best combination of muscle and curves (better known as murves) we've ever seen on a competitor: one of the first ladies of the figure division, Christine Pomponio.
She may be only five foot one but you wouldn't know it at first glance as her physique more than held her own with competitors taller than her, bringing in a full, defined physique with strong legs developed by her socccer days and some insane defined delts that wouldn't look out of place with today's figure division. BUT...let's be honest...along with her great physique, she had one hell of a massive chest on her. But they didn't just stay still...they tended to flex on stage, giving her quite the illusion. Now whether she meant to do it or her chest was that strong that it just happened...we don't know, and frankly...it doesn't matter. It's amazing to look at regardless. Check out some photos below to see what we're talking about. There are a FEW competitors that can do that now, but none like Christine did back in the day.
The biggest regret we have during her time as a competitor is that she didn't do shoots with paysites. In our honest opinion, she would have brought in the dough big time with her look and her following would have grown tremendously. But it's great that her look was favorable as a competitor, as she competed in multiple contests including the Arnold and Olympia, placing in the top 6 in most of her shows as a pro, including winning the 2005 and 2006 California Pro. Her career came to an abrupt halt in 2007 as she became a mother for the first time in her life and a few years later would give birth to twins. After her first child, she did a couple of shoots with Marc Thyssen and got in such great shape both times, one would have thought she was ready to compete again! She also did a couple of shoots after the birth of her twins, and again...was able to rebound with a great look. Her recent commercial for Granite Depot will make you do a double take...like does she EVER age?! The correct answer is ABSOUUTELY NOT!
In our honest opinion, she is the measuring stick for short figure competitors who want to succeed but feel they won't due to their height. And with all these returns that have been happening in the bodybuilding world, one can wonder...what if Christine decides to grace us again on stage or with more photoshoots, maybe in the paysite department. What if she ever does a Onlyfans and REALLY gives us a great look at one of the hottest women in figure history?! Like with all things...never say never!
