Lora Ottenad (born February 3, 1964) is an American professional bodybuilder and powerlifting champion from Las Vegas, Nevada.[7][2][8]

Bodybuilding career[edit]

Amateur[edit]

At the 2000 National Physique Committee (NPC) Nationals, according to Gene Hwang, "From the looks of the prejudging though, it was almost a consensus that Ottenad was going to take the class,". However, when the final results were read out, Heather Foster had beat Lora for the 1st place heavyweight title. The audience erupted with boos of displeasure over this. Lora stormed off the stage after the photographs and Sheliah Browne tried and failed to catch up to her to give her the trophy she left on stage. A camera crew surrounded the heavyweight top five quickly, but as Lora was leaving, she was visibly angered and many in the crowd were equally dumbfounded.[9] At the 2006 NPC Nationals, Lora got 1st place in the heavyweight class at 170 lb (77 kg), the heaviest heavyweight class winner since Nicole Bass in 1997, along with winning the overall and her International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness Professional League card.[3]
