Fitness Competitor Dina Al-Sabah is Still one of the Most Beautiful Women in Sports

Dina Al-Sabah is the first female Arab athlete ever to stand on an Olympic stage and is certainly one of the most beautiful women in sports.


Dina Ali Fahad Al-Salim Al-Sabah


Born on February 28, 1974 in Bierut, Lebanon.  She is of Kuwaiti decent.


Professional Figure Competitor, IFBB Pro Figure Athlete


Dina came in 10th at the 2010 IFBB Bikini Olympia, 3rd at Detroit Pro


Her Pro debut came in 2003 at the Pittsburgh Pro Figure Championships where Dina came in 4th place


Al-Sabah starting competing in 1999 and in 2001 when she tried to register for the nationals she found out she had to be a US citizen to compete.  The only way she could compete was to get a recommendation from the Kuwaiti national federation and unfortunately due to traditional Arab beliefs, women are not allowed to compete in any bodybuilding competitions and was denied by Kuwait.  In 2002 the NPC and IFBB presidents granted Dina her IFBB Pro card.
