Melissa Coates a one of a kind magnificient beauty!!
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
stats are 36DD, 26, 34 with 15 inch
biceps, 16 in calves, and 24 in thighs. I got
interested in bodybuilding originally as I was weigh
training for a career in tennis, but was caught up in
the feeling of health and power I got from pumping
iron. To see my body change in dimension and see my
strength progress so rapidly was, and still is, a real
high for me. I have always been attracted to power,
and the motto I live by is stated so aptly by Henry
Kissinger: "Power is the great aphrodisiac" Before I
began competing in bodybuilding shows, I participated
in Power Competitions, and had a great championship
bench press, benching 250 lbs at a body weight of 130
lbs. Other maximums I have achieved are a 315 squat,
and a 405 deadlift, not too bad for a woman whose
bodyweight fluctuates between 135 - 145 lbs. I
quickly moved onto BB, because I felt the challenge to
be even greater than in powerlifting and surprised
myself by a string of victories in Canada as a
lightweight and then a middleweight until I became a
pro in 1994 by winning the Canadian Championships. My
pro debut saw me win the 1996 Jan Tana, and have had a
world ranking as high as 9, when I placed 9th in the
1996 Olympia, which I have competed in twice. I have
also competed in the Ms International twice, with 5th
runner up as my highest placing. For the most part, I
have had great success in the magazine business, being
featured on 10 covers and 5 centerfolds. I most often
have appeared in MuscleMag, Flex, Muscle & Fitness,
Muscular Development, and Women's Physique World. I
have been involved in the magazine business for 7
years now, and still am used extensively as a fitness
model today, last shooting for the Flex swimsuit issue
to be released in late winter 2000. I have also
modelled for weightlifting belts and gloves, and for
clothing ads, and have participated in TV shows, talk
shows, and the movie "Nemesis III". Currently I am
learning wrestling and kickboxing moves so that I may
extend my knowledge of these activities, in the hopes
of one day perhaps participating in one of the pro
wrestling federations. I enjoy wrestling as a way of
using the strength I have gained from years of lifting
weights, and am always open to learning new techniques
from whoever I may be in combat with. For the most
part, my object is to have fun in these matches, and
do enjoy the variety of people I meet. It is a
pleasure to feel appreciated for the years of work I
have put into developing my body, and through this
work I meet so many people who do respect the hard
work that goes into being a female bodybuilder. These
matches also give me a chance to spend time with the
fans that I usually would not have the time to spend
chatting with. I see these matches as a way of
sponsoring me in my competitive efforts, and I do
invite anyone and everyone to contact me so we can set
up a time and place to get together. You will find I
am very down to earth, so there is no need to be shy -
I will put you at ease immediately. I know if it were
not for this business, it would be very hard for women
bodybuilders to have the finances available to
compete. So thank you, one and all, for your
continued support. You may contact me personally at
melissacoates@yahoo.com, or my pager number is (310)
262-4085. Hope to hear from you real soon! And you
won't regret it!
On a sidenote, because I am so involved in magazine
work, I stay within 10 lbs of my competition weight,
so me being out of shape is never a factor. I am
available for muscle worship, posing, domination, role
play (which we can be pretty creative at!!) fantasy
wrestling, and some light wrestling. Because I am
still competing professionally I tend to stay away
from
competitive wrestling. But as I learn more moves in
wrestling school, I may extend into this area for
anyone interested. Hope to meet up with you real
soon!!!
