Adela Garcia
Adela Garcia won the Fitness Olympia eight times between 2004 and 2013, and the Arnold Classic fitness title five times. She is from the Dominican Republic and competed at 5 feet 1 inch.
Known for
Eight Fitness Olympia titles is the most anyone has won, and she took them in 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. The only year inside that span she did not win, 2005, she finished third.
The Arnold Classic record runs alongside it: the fitness international title in 2004, 2006, 2010, 2011 and 2012. She won both major titles in the same season four times.
Early career
Our record for her opens in 2004 with the Arnold Classic and the Olympia in her first recorded season, which is as complete a debut as the division allows. Seventeen contests are recorded and she won fourteen of them.
Championship record

Where these results come from. Each contest in the table was recorded from a named source, and for Adela Garcia those sources are MuscleMemory and NPC Contests. Open any contest above and that page names its own source and links to it where the source is still reachable. MuscleMemory is the exception: the archive we recorded those older shows from no longer answers at the addresses we hold, so it is credited by name and not offered as a link.

Physique benchmark
How Adela Garcia measures up
Fat-free mass index turns the height and weight on this profile into one number for how much muscle a frame carries, so a shorter competitor is not flattered by a bodyweight comparison. The normalised figure adjusts it again to a standard height, which is the version worth ranking. Both assume the 6% body fat a competitor steps on stage at, because that is the only condition the recorded weight was taken in.
19.4FFMI
21.0Normalised FFMI
80thOf 147 measured women
The closest Olympia champion on that measure is Jennifer Dorie, at 21.0, the same figure.
What this rank is not. This database holds a height and a weight for just 463 athletes, and they are overwhelmingly the ones somebody bothered to measure: 74 of them hold an Olympia title. Almost every competitor on record carries no measurement at all. The pool also mixes every division and era together, from the lightweight women's classes to the open heavyweights, so it ranks size and nothing else. It says where Adela Garcia sits among the athletes we hold measurements for, not among competitors.

Legacy
Fitness is judged on a gymnastic routine as well as a physique and it turns its champions over quickly. Garcia held the top of it for a decade, which nobody else has come close to doing.
Most-met rivals
Compare any two athletes →In 6 meetings, Adela Garcia finished ahead of Oksana Grishina 5 times to 1.
Opponents are ranked by how often they shared a stage and how big the stage was, not by reputation. A meeting is one contest where both competed in the same division and both were placed.

Sources
Competition placings on this page come from our own contest database and cover 2004 to 2013.
Some contests appear twice in the table below because one result was recorded under two division labels. They are single contests.
Win rate here is first-place finishes as a share of all 17 professional contest results. It is published only where a career holds at least five, because below that a single placing moves the figure by twenty points or more.
