Data updated

Known for

Back-to-back Ms. International titles, which is the Arnold's own figure championship and the second-biggest title in the division. She won it in 2013 and 2014 and was third there in 2012 and 2015.

Her Olympia record reads third in 2012, third in 2013 and second in 2014. Three podiums in three years, and then she stopped competing.

Early career

She won her class at the 2008 Nationals, which carried the professional card, and took the Jacksonville Pro and the Battle of Champions in 2010.

2012 and 2013 are where the record concentrates: the Europa Show of Champions, the Orlando Show of Champions, the European Pro and the New York Pro in 2012, then the Ms. International, the Australia Pro, the Grand Prix Australia and the New York Pro again in 2013.

How Candice Keene 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.

20.4FFMI
21.3Normalised FFMI
65thOf 147 measured women

The closest Olympia champion on that measure is Dana Linn Bailey, at 21.3, 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: 73 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 Candice Keene sits among the athletes we hold measurements for, not among competitors.

Where these results come from. Each contest in the table was recorded from a named source, and for Candice Keene 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.

Legacy

Keene's whole professional career runs seven years and it produced sixteen wins and three Olympia podiums. She left at the point most competitors are still building, which is why a record this strong is barely discussed.

Sources

Competition placings on this page come from our own contest database and cover her record from 2008 to 2015.

Her 2013 Ms. International win also appears as a 2013 Arnold Classic row, under a division label of "Arnold Classic 212" that does not describe her division. The Ms. International is held at the Arnold; it is one contest recorded twice with one label wrong.

In 14 meetings, Nicole Wilkins finished ahead of Candice Keene 13 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.
