I don’t think either Sharon Marvel or Paula Suzuki, despite their enormous size, could be considered heavyweights– they weren’t tall enough. I think minimum height to be considered heavyweight would be Christine Envall’s 5’4 or 5’5.
With that in mind, here are my favorite hevayweights since the beginning of the sport:
80s — Kay Baxter, Teagan Clive, Cathy Palyo, Hannie Van Aken
90s — Kim Chivesky, Tina Lockwood, Christine Envall, Ursula Teply, Christine Wolf,
Lora Ottenad, Paulina Talus, Nursel Gurler, Yaxeni Oriquen, Denise Hoshor2000s — Kim Perez, Cornelia Brandt, Andrea Weston, Nina Loebert
Again these are only my favorites. I know, for example, that Karla Nelson and Nicole Bass were two humongous fbbs, but I didn’t consider them attractive, so I left them off my list.

September 14, 2012 at 5:28 am #109958chris10000Participantthe heavyweight class starts at 59 kilo…its called heavyweight but is far away from heavy :laugh:
the heaviest pro in the 2000s was jana linke-sippl with a (measured) competitionweight of 83 kg (185 lbs)…
(but i know knudle dont find her attrative) 😆September 14, 2012 at 5:33 am #109959AntiParticipantI will do that when I’ve done proper research for my list. I meant to say post by the way.
I’m sorry about that last post I made if, that’s what you assumed.September 14, 2012 at 5:51 am #109960AntiParticipantIs this by IFBB standards? I just checked their website and it clearly says over 57kg which is 125lbs if I know my measurements correctly. Jana Linke-Sippl more likely seems heavy in weight because of her height (5’7) but I might give her a spot.
September 14, 2012 at 6:06 am #109962AntiParticipantI am aware of the Dutch female bodybuilder who won Ms.Olympia in 2001. She was around 140lbs so she was considered a heavyweight by IFBB standards.To answer your question why only heavyweights because no one else that I know of has done something like this on any forum or blog and also because I can.

thats the amateur ifbb standard…with lightweights , middleweights, and heavy….
at pro (if there were classes) they had only light_ and heavyweight and the limit was 59 kgSeptember 14, 2012 at 7:25 am #109965chris10000ParticipantColette Nelson,
