Actual competition and filming: September 2007
| Competition Highlight: |
Out of over 40 national finalist athletes, Evamarie won the routine round |
| Competition Low Point: | Best left undisclosed; let's just leave it at "the Murphy's Law of very bad bodily timing" |
| Post Competition Cheat Treat: | Sugar-free Jell-o and flavored rice cakes at the hotel room (hey when all you've eaten the entire week are apples, yogurt with protein powder mixed in, cottage cheese and peppermint candies.....ANYTHING else is like ambrosia!) |

Starting pose for the Fitness Routine: No, it doesn't hurt, and yes, it was chosen for shock value! |
Warming up with a handstand |
Evamarie's famous Spider Push-ups |

Elbow Scorpion, another routine "trick" borrowed from Evamarie's yoga! |
Group action shot during warm-up -- everyone is in their own zone! |
Group rehearsal; this is when we're practicing the final "rush" to the stage upon hearing the winner's name announced |
|
Truth: We have just finished the 2-hour physique round, and I couldn't dive back out of my bikini and into street clothes fast enough!
