Ericca Kern, 44-years-old, has been an IFBB pro for years, she competed as a bodybuilder until 1998. Ericca just announced that she will be buying some heels and making the switch to figure this year. She announced on her facebook page that she is looking for a challenge and had been considering competing again, but this time in figure.
“…If IFBB allows me to compete again I just realized that I will now have to do quarter turns in 6″ heels… I was used to bare-feet… This may require a different type of coordination… The positive?… I get to go shoe shopping!!…The people at the shows were the very best part of the whole deal. The stage was never fun, the prep was a challenge and the photo shoots were icing.. It was the fans and followers of the sport that made it a joy…My true love is the iron and the bodybuilding..I just don’t think that after 10 years I could gain the size I’d need to stand on stage next to everyone in the BB division.”
