On the second episode of The Bachelor, after Arie consoles Annaliese at the racetrack (she said it was a traumatic experience), he gets some one-on-one time with Krystal Nielson. The stunning 29-year-old fitness coach from Missoula, Montana who now lives in San Diego seems like a laid-back person. Remember, Krystal calmed Arie’s nerves on the first night with a little meditation. But when she visits Arie’s hometown in Scottsdale, Arizona, and meets his family, Krystal is “concealing a dark secret that might scare Arie away.”
Could Krystal’s secret be that she’s one of the few contestants who doesn’t have a tattoo? Or is it that on Saturday nights she’d rather be home relaxing alone with her puppies? Or does the secret have to do with her career as a bikini muscle competitor? Check her out at the NPC Pacific USA Championship in 2015 (photo below). She looks amazing, and a bit darker (bronizer). Krystal wrote about the experience: “Even tho I look like I’m in incredible shape I am actually at my weakest point. Cutting carbs, sometimes even water for 3 days before a show can leave your body and metabolism totally wrecked.” The Bachelor airs Mondays at 8pm on ABC, for two whole hours.
