Who says a nice Jewish girl can't be a bodybuilder?

If you imagined the typical Jewish physique, bodybuilder is probably not what would come to mind. In pop culture, Jews are skinny and bespectacled like Woody Allen, or chubby and unshaven like Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill. Sometimes the rare tough and rugged Israeli shows up, fighting terror and being macho. But big, buff and tan — that’s something you rarely see. So how did a nice Jewish girl end up becoming a champion in the sport of hulking supermen like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronnie Coleman?

In Erin Stern’s case, it all started with three centimeters.

Three centimeters is not a long distance to travel. It’s barely more than an inch. Take one footstep and you’d blow right by it. But for Stern, the three centimeters she couldn’t travel changed her life forever.

A Junior All-American at the University of Florida, Stern had been competing in events like the pentathlon and heptathlon since high school. Her high-jump numbers were good enough that she set her sights on the Beijing Olympics. All that stood between her and the team trials were a few short centimeters. She kicked her training into overdrive, and her numbers improved, but she was falling just shy of what she needed.

“I’m a little short for a high-jumper,” says the statuesque 5-foot-8 Stern, chuckling. “I gave it my all, but I couldn’t make the last three centimeters.”

Dejected, Stern was forced to give up on Olympic high jumping.

“I was extremely bummed,” she said.

I bet you could crack a walnut on her backside..

That is exactly why I left off Bull-Dyke Neo-Paganism.

It appears that she also has breast implants.

The best physique for a gal is that of a tennis player. By that I mean Amanda Coetzer, Gabriela Sabatini and Maria Sharapova.

I watched that movie again recently (Aliens), and was thinking, “Did the actress who played Vasquez ever get much work after that (Jenette Goldstein)? Because her CHARACTER has been in a dozen movies after that!” (most recently Avatar).

[jla]

Too much. It’s just too much. LOL

[hoagy62]

Thinking of the Frank Zappa song “Jewish Princess”.

Now THAT’S a Mitzvah!

I’d Lazamataz it.

Dina Al Sabah, muslim body builder:

Enough already! Think I'll class this thread up a bit, and who better to illustrate this than Rosie O!

[thulldud]

That can’t be Rosie, the boat is obviously floating!

[bolobaby]

May be better if she had some hips on her. Yikes.

“Hey Vasquez. Have you ever been mistaken for a man?”

“No. Have YOU?”

(One of my favorite lines from the Movie "Aliens")

‘Dina Al Sabah, muslim body builder:’

I rule this offering as NOT GUILTY

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Rosie just got a part in the new Three Stooges movie! They’re gonna shave her head so she can play Curly! Madonna is getting a bowl cut, and will play Moe. Lindsey Lohan will be Larry.

Now THAT’S a Mitzvah!

"Bar" none. ;-)
