VIDEO REVIEW: Viking Strength: Modesta Halby

I reviewed a clip of Modesta Hemmingsen (formerly Halby) before on this site a year ago (click here to view my review on it) and loved the clip. But the latest one HerBiceps put out just might be her best one yet. Maybe THE definitive Modesta clip. If there is only one video of Modesta you get in your lifetime, this one is it. I own plenty of Modesta videos over the years and all of them are very good, but her latest one via HerBiceps tops them all, IMHO.

The video shows Modesta (billed at 5'5 and 169lbs, a lot of muscle for her size...and we love that!) joined by her friend of fellow IFBB pro Jess Belt (billed at 5'9 and 169lbs, taller than Modesta but smaller in muscle size) preparing for an arm wrestling contest (spoiler alert...it's barely a fight) and goes into a quick montage of what to prepare for in the full video. Personally...I was not prepared for what was to come. 

After the montage, Modesta in an red and white stripe tank top, Daisy Dukes, and cowboy boots, hulked out like only she could, flexing as hard as she could, popping her pecs with everything she had. Her chest was definitely the star of the show and she made damn sure of it, flexing and popping them every chance she got. After giving her pecs the love they deserved, she did some bicep flexing (even though her pecs wanted to get in on the action as well). We then alternate into biceps and pecs for a bit. She didn't flex her legs, but there were definitely on display to watch. We then go into some bicep measurements for Modesta and Jess before the arm wrestling contest, which was completely one-sided from the word GO. I won't post the winner, but you can probably guess who it is. After the contest, it's back to the flexing her pecs and biceps to finish off her best clip yet. She did not let up nor phone it in on the flexing. She flexed HARD and it showed. And she was in contest shape, so we got to see her physique at peak perfection.

She took this year off from competing to add more muscle to her frame in hopes of returning to the stage in 2027. For me personally, this clip from her is gonna be hard to top but if anyone can outdo their own work, she can. I look forward to her return to the stage next year and HOPEFULLY more from her on HerBiceps and other sites!

VIDEO REVIEW: Non-Stop Pecs: Alicia Bell

For years, I've wondered if Alicia Bell could pec bounce. She has shown in various videos on HerBiceps that she had the ability to do it but never really actually did it to her full potential. All it took was one video to answer the question "Can she or can't she?" and she made it clear in the first seconds that she DEFINITELY CAN...and she's pretty damn good at it to boot! 

The video stars off with Alicia in a black bikini flexing her pecs in front of a mirror, admiring her own flexing abilities. The video goes back and forth between Alicia and her reflection, popping each pec with as much force as she can. Her flexing does variate from doing them both at the same time to doing them one at a time, in addition to different arm placements to make the visuals that much mora appealing. You can tell she is getting in quite the workout flexing them! You can tell she gets tired a bit for flexing them so hard and so much, but Every flex shows off her power but later on in the video, you can see her going a bit faster after warming her pecs up. She also throws in a bicep flex for good measure, with some more pec flexing to boot.

The final two minutes of the clip sees Alicia sitting on a mini-stool feeling herself and finishing her pec bouncing masterpiece. Almost eight minutes total of pec bouncing heaven, IMHO. The clip is titled Non-Stop Pecs and it definitely delivers. If this is the only time Alicia ever does pec bouncing, this was one hell of a video to do it in. A must-have VOD for any pec bouncing fan.

VIDEO REVIEW: Shake Dem THANGS! Loren Calderoni

It's one thing to build a body that most would think comes out of a lab. It's another thing to actually flex it in a way that makes you go HOLY SHIT! Loren's Shake Dem THANGS video is just that...a video you have to see it to believe it and after you complete it (which will take time to...I won't elaborate any further than that) you still won't believe what the fck you watch. BTW, this is not a diss to her or the video, quite the opposite actually. Legit one of the craziest flexing videos you will ever see!

For those that follow the figure division, Loren ballooned in size from 2024 to 2025 and HerBiceps made sure to capture her in insane shape for this insane video. The video starts off with Loren in full body for a few seconds and gives a smirk that says "You have no idea what you have signed up for"...and boy was she right! She flexed her abs for a bit and then the leg flexing began and GOOD LORD...if you don't become a leg man after this video, there is something seriously wrong with you. A very good deal of abs control and SO MUCH QUAD AND GLUTE CONTROL. Quad bouncing, quad shaking, glute bouncing, glute clenching...every form of lower body muscle control you can think of and what you didn't realized even existed...it's there. And to top it all off, she is in contest shape to boot, which makes the visual all the more incredible. 

$8.80 is a steal for one of the craziest lower body centered clips you will ever see. The video is almost nine minutes, but I guarantee that you will have to pause it to give yourself a break. You're a good one if you can survive the full time without...you know. If you are a fan of intense lower body muscle and you DON'T get this clip, you're not a fan of intense lower body muscle. If you are not a fan of intense lower body muscle, I would highly suggest you give this one a clip. You will never look at lower body muscle the same again.

VIDEO REVIEW: Military Mommy - Meet Callie Eisenhart

(All photos are from the HerBiceps website)

When I saw that Callie Eisenhart was going to have a  HerBiceps VOD, I knew I had to get it as soon as I was able to. At the time, she was competing in Wellness, but it was obvious from the first few seconds that she would not last in Wellness long. Her overall physique then was too good to just focus on lower body (for those wondering, she is moving to women's physique soon). 

This was her first VOD, so obviously this was going to be an introduction video with plenty of her speaking on her background, which she did. I found out things I never knew, like she actually TRAINED for powerlifting (never competed) for a couple of months before making the bodybuilding transition. She was also part of the military for a while, so a massive thanks to her for her service for the United States of America and serving this country proud.  She did choose Wellness, which seeing them in the video should surprise no one as her legs STAYED flexed throughout the entire video. She barely let go of the tension on them, showing crazy cuts. After speaking on her background, she did some measurements on her biceps, quads, and calves. I won't post them here as I rather you find out for yourself getting the video. Quite of bit of bicep bouncing and quad shaking in this video. You can tell she absolutely LOVE her leg muscles. Here's hoping HerBiceps will run it back one day once Callie makes the official transition to women's physique! This video is under $10 and worth every penny, IMHO.

VIDEO REVIEW: Modesta Halby: Muscle Queen

Modesta Halby (now Modesta Henningsen...sorry guys, she's taken) is (to me) one of the hottest women in the women's physique division. Her muscle size combined with her massive chest and feminine curves make her a must-watch for female muscle fans and her latest video on HerBiceps is no different.

Modesta is in a tight red one-piece swimsuit and she brings up the last time they shot with HerBiceps, which showed a very quick montage of her 2022 shoots before going back to talking about her currently at the time of the video. And yes, she definitely put on a good deal of muscle between shoots. As she was talking, the video showed a couple of flexes to get folks prepared for what was to come, which included a bicep flex with her massive chest flexing along with her biceps as well as her raising her calves. We go from the front to the back in pretty quick time, showing off some very tight glutes and amazing back definition while doing the traditional women's physique back double biceps pose. We transition from her upper body to her very cut quads and then back to showing off her V-taper. The first couple of minutes definitely give us a great look at her best features while doing some talking. If you love seeing muscular ladies' chest twitch during bicep flexes, Modesta is among the best to do it. And I think she KNOWS she's good at it.

After a couple of minutes, we get Modesta in full body as they get still shots of her. Modesta shows off every fiber of muscle to perfection, with pec contraction for days throughout the entire video, While I personally wish she would explore pec bouncing a bit more based off all the movement her chest did this entire video (which is over eight minutes long), I personally can't find a flaw to this video whatsoever. While she did not show abs in the video in the traditional sense, you can definitely tell they are developed through her swimsuit. 

Midway through the video, they did some measurements where Modesta measured 15-inch biceps, 24.5-inch quads, and 16.5-inch calves (all flexed). After measurements, we get a big of lower-body focused flexing, and we are back to full body posing, which includes one of the best side chest poses you will see in women's physique (again, her perky chest definitely plays a factor in that). Towards the end of the video, she flexes her chest HARD as the video focuses more upper body and back with some more tight glute action before ending it with some hard bicep flexing. 

If you are a fan of busty muscular women flexing to their limits, this is one to get. You can't get much better than this, IMHO. Again, the ONLY thing I wish there was in this video was more legit pec bouncing from Modesta but with the way this video turned out to be, I can't and won't complain. $8.50 is a steal for this kind of video (cheaper if you are a HerBiceps+ member)

Mistie Lopez: The Muscle Barbie You NEED To Know

There are women that come out of nowhere that capture the attention of folks. One such woman that has taken social media (more specifically Instagram) by storm is Mistie Lopez. Mistie has been in the game for a while on the competition side of things since 2019, winning the NPC Steve Kuclo Classic Overall Figure title and would go on to win her pro card last year at the NPC Nationals, winning her class (Class G) in figure. She has spent 2023 putting on some serious size in hopes of doing well in the pro rankings whenever she decides to make her debut.

Despite her competing since 2019, she has not had a social media presence…until about 5 or so months ago when she joined Instagram. When I followed her, she had a little over 1,000 followers. As of this writing, she now has over 8,000 followers and will probably reach 10,000 by years end. Her popularity has skyrocketed out of nowhere thanks to her amazing size and power, love for flexing, insane strength, and commanding overall beauty. The way she loves to flex, we feel it’s only a matter of time before she joins a paysite and gets some money for her flexing. She’s got the look that can make her and female muscle paysites a lot of money.

We don’t know what the future holds for Mistie Lopez, but if her social media rise is any indication, her future is a bright one and it’s only going to get brighter. If you are into tall blonde women with massive muscles and a serious love for flexing, Mistie is the girl for you.
