WPW 716 - Kim Birtch & Judy Serpa (contains all of 365) [DVD]

This was our second session with Kim (she is also on 679) and she was again in her huge off-season condition at 5'4" 165 pounds. Her gymwork contains some repwork and some strong lifts, including 100+ pound curls and racking the lat pulldown machine. The Ontario (Canada) Provincial Champ then shows off her 16" arms in a bikini and three dress items and is interviewed. Her footage runs about 80 minutes, so we added all of WPW Video 365 of Judy Serpa, which had not been on DVD yet. Judy's footage was from 1998 and shows her in similar off-season shape, posing in several outfits, doing heavy gymwork (including her performance in that year's Extravaganza Strength Show) and an interview. Video/DVD 716 runs 2 3/4 hours.

WPW 365: We met Judy at the 1998 Junior Nationals, but did not do this photo/video work with her until later in the year, when she was in New Jersey to do the Extravaganza Strength Contest. She was in off-season shape at 5'4" 155 pounds, but was lean with very good arms and legs, including great calves. We normally did not get a chance to do gymwork with women in town for the strength show, but Judy 'went for it' for three very strong lifts in the gym- benching 225 pounds for reps, 1000 pound leg presses, and she worked up to the very tough 'bodyweight curl'. In addition to that gymwork, we also included all of her lifting in the strength show (and her prejudging posing routine at the Jr. Nationals), posing in a one-piece and dresses, and she is interviewed. She was a perfect combination of balanced physique and physical strength, but as for so many women of the time, this Texan retired from the scene soon after.
