1x Figure Olympia, 2008
Jennifer Gates
Jennifer Gates won the Figure Olympia in 2008, in her second professional season, after placing fourth in 2007. She turned professional by winning the Junior Nationals in 2007.
Known for
The 2008 season is the record: the Olympia title, a win at the Atlantic City Pro and second at the Ms. International. She had placed fourth at the Olympia and third at the New York Pro the year before, and won the Motor City Pro in her first professional season.
Early career
She competed as an amateur from 2001, winning the lightweight classes at the Indiana and Midwest Championships that year, then moved to figure and spent three seasons working through the national shows before winning the Junior Nationals in 2007.
Her last recorded contest is the 2011 Ms. International.
Championship record
Where the titles came from

Physique benchmark
How Jennifer Gates 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
20.9Normalised FFMI
82ndOf 147 measured women
The closest Olympia champion on that measure is Kim Chizevsky, at 20.8.
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 Jennifer Gates sits among the athletes we hold measurements for, not among competitors.
Amateur and other shows not counted above
11 results from amateur shows and other contests this archive does not class as professional. Every total on this page covers the professional career only, so these are listed here but never counted, and they have no contest page.
