Lenny Carvalho began her meteoric career by winning the 1st place in NABBA II Rio de Janeiro state pro figure and fitness championship [figure category] and other minor local competitions. Although all the commotion caused by her baby face and incredible body, we know little about her, since she left the scene two years before to start a family.

Refaal – you had me worried there for a minute; in the UK, Lenny is a man's name!  😮 ??? (it's a shortened version of Leonard, often popular among the Caribbean comunity – the comic Lenny Henry is a prime example).  However, with a sweet face and a tight muscle bod, she's one Lenny I could fancy!  What a pity she left the scene. 🙁

It's a real shame when promising athletes leave this sport so quickly. But it's their decision and thank goodness we've got recorded pictures!

I know Lenny is a male name.
And thats one of the 'mysteries' concerning L.C. We dont know if Lenny is her real name, a nickname or some sort of 'americanization' – sadly some athletes change their names to 'ease' their way into international competition scene.

I was able to chat with few brazilian athletes and some say
thats too much sacrifice for not enough reward. I concur.

That's precisely why we need both FBB and fitness comptition to get more mainstream acceptance and coverage – it'll help bring better prize-money into the sport.
