    Thanks for the post; I'd not heard of her, but I like what I see.  I notice that she has problems with a thicker waist in terms of trying to create a v-taper.  I seem to recall we discused this some time ago, with me defending Isabelle Turell as an example of someone else who has to work hard on the upper body to balance-out the waist.  I'm also inrigued by her reference to calves.  I'd never realised what it was that was different about Figure competitors' legs compared to FBBers' legs, though I had felt that something was.  Why on earth would they pressure them to not have calves?  Surely part of the reasn for the heels is to show-off the calf muscles? ???

    Calf development is tricky, anyway. Generally, people either have it or they have to really work at it. In either case, I prefer the look of shapely, well-defined calves.  I don't know why the aesthetic is changing, though.  I complain about it at length here: http://asianfitnessblog.com/2007/05/25/is-calf-development-now-penalised.aspx

    Anyway, thanks for reading the interview.  Mo generally will respond to comments and questions if you want to leave her a note.
