We’re very sad to have to report on the recent death of multiple-time Pro Figure champion and 2x Ms. Figure Olympia Jenny Lynn-Powell. According to reports, she passed away in her sleep after having a seizure. Her husband Ricky tried to save her life but was unsuccessful. She was 49 years old.

Biography 

Powell was originally from Petaluma, California, and loved singing and dancing as a child and at one point competed in cheerleading at a national level.

She eventually found her love for fitness after teaching aerobics and starting weight training and the rest was history. The ultra-competitive and talented Jenny Lynn-Powell earned her Pro Card at the 2001 NPC USA Fitness Championships only one year into competing.

She was an incredibly accomplished competitor who took first place at the prestigious Olympia in 2006 and 2007. She also won the Figure International Arnold three times and managed to win several more shows as a Figure competitor. Powell established herself as one of the very best in the world and retired after the 2009 Olympia where she placed 7th.
