We always get in trouble when we use the term “bodybuilding beauties” as many of you write in to say they are all beautiful. However we do think it is particularly appropriate here, as even though both women are top physiques, it was their combination of their beauty of face and physique that attracted us to tape them. By now readers of our magazine will have seen Cathy on the cover of our Jan/Feb 1996 issue, and her posing footage contains the photo shoot for that photo. Overall, we have 50 full minutes of posing, taken the day before her Jan Tana contest in July 1995, when she was in hard, lean contest shape. Most of the footage was taken with our regular video equipment, except for the “cover shoot” where the camcorder man was used to follow the action of that session . Also included is a 20 minute rep-oriented gym-workout, and a 20 minute interview, with the help of an interpreter as Cathy speaks mainly French. At 5'2", Cathy packs a lot of muscle on her 123 pound frame—great arms, back, triceps, calves—the whole package, and her up personality brightens any posing scene. Unlike Cathy, who is a top pro, Lisa Smith is a newcomer to the scene , and we got her in top contest shape at the Jan Tana amateur show. The “new” Lisa, like the original Lisa Lorio Smith, is from Louisiana, and checked in at 132 pounds at 5'6", for our two days of shootings. It was nice to watch as her posing confidence improved the second day, allowing us to keep half of the 40 minutes of posing live sound. The youthful looking Lisa (she is 30, but looks 20!) hits the shots in several swimsuits and dresses, displaying mid-level muscularity (but great back, triceps, calves, and good biceps) on a gorgeous frame. The tape ends with her 20 minute interview.
