Liza Kampstra

The gorgeous Liza Kampstra is a knock out in more ways than one.
This young lady had to give up her first love soccer because of an injury.
But did that stop her?
Nope.
She began training with IFBB Pro Carla Sanchez and the Performance Ready Team and look at her now.
Now she's an IFBB Professional Fitness Athlete, Mom, MMA ring girl and model.
And she has started building a very impressive contest history.....

MC Barao

This 5'4" 109 pound beauty was born in the Philippines and raised in Houston Texas.
She appears to be just starting out, with a website coming soon, http://www.mcbarao.com/
Maybe when the website is up I can get some more info.
I have no idea if she has been in any figure competitions, if she's a personal trainer (although I did read where she said she wanted to help people with their fitness goals) or anything like that.
MAYBE she'll stop by and enlighten us.
