did kara even do a meet this year?

She had the second highest total of the year at 148 and set a new all-time bench press mark.

Best female powerlifter of all time! Beauty, Brains, and muscle!!!!!

No excuses! Just lift it!

Kara did the APF Alabama at 148 and was awesome! She said she's coming back this year! She set the All-time 148 women's bench record at 418 lbs. and broke the Am. Squat record wearing only breifs, belt and wraps!...OK! and a singlet! Kara is the all-time class act!

Where has Phelps been?

Where's Becca Swanson?

Has she not competed this year?

Almost all of Laura's big lifts were done in the highPA or the WPO (let any lift pass). She is a great squatter and bencher, but a terrible deadlifter.

TERRIBLE BENCHER DEAD LIFTER BUT GREAT SQUATTER!

HER BENCH ACTUALLY DID A REVERSE THEN BACK UP AND THEY GAVE IT TO HER, I THINK IT WAS A 2 INCH BENCH CAUSE OF HER ARCH.

I voted for Ribic because she's HOT!

TRUE THAT Troy

This is best female lifter *of 2007*. All of these ladies have a resume, but what has each one achieved this year? Jessica O'Donnell's world record 597 at the Women's Gateway Open Championship comes to mind...

She is a great lifter, but RIBIC did 556 world record + all time record, pulled 556 in two weight classes, best lifter at nationals, the Panams, Northamericans, medalist at IPF worlds. Amazing year for her.

Jon maybe in the future to stop all these bad mouths. Maybe you should put a little list on what these people did threw out the year! A little bit more trouble but it would help to see what they all did, its hard to vote when u only know what 1 or 2 lifters did.

I can't believe people are voting for someone becasue they think they are hot? Come on boys!

Good suggestion Lisa. We'll see what we can do for next year.

EASY PICK, KARA, WORLD RECORD BENCHIN WHILE LOOKIN LIKE A FITNESS MODEL....PIGTAILS!!!!!!
!!...SOO HOTT!!

daaaaaayumn scott, that some gangsta shit right there!!
