    Default Check Out This Body!

    MAC Cosmetics (love'm!) has an amazing new campaign with a female bodybuilder. I think she is stunning.

    I know we have a female bodybuilder here on the forums. Go girls!

    Yes, I am quoting myself, lol...I think the fact that the trend I see in my clubs is girls turning their noses up at those who are anything above the avg size 2 body type in the club..Its funny bc even the less attractive yet skinny girls think they r above girls like me who are more of a size 6...The guys who like me think the girls with no boobs and no ass rnt attractive at all..Everybody hates on everyone and its getting really out of hand,,Really I think the scrutiny is getting overly ridiculous..We shoudnt all fit n the same mold of body style..I definitely dont...I think different is sometimes better...Also the younger girls I see more and more can not relate to the older style of dancing that many of my fellow co workers over 30 and I have...Its like it foreign to them....Its just foreign to me to work as hard as they do for as little money as what I see on the runway...Anyone who has more of a muscular build these size 0 and 2 girls think are fat...Its really getting ridiculous imho, but I dont think theres much that can be done to change their minds..I think some of them look anoxeric while they prolly think Im fat at a size 6...It isnt good..makes it hard to draw together when co-workers r constantly scrutinizing other co-workers..

    I'm sorry but getting guns likes that is more unrealistic than being very thin IMO .. I'm an avg sized girl (5'6 120)who works out regularly and that type of body takes alot more training and dedication than a girl who is just really skinny..,

    i don't think anybody should be turning up their noses at another girls body , as long as she's healthy and happy with herself! i would never call anyone over a size 2 fat, and im madly trying to gain weight because of people who say " girls with no boobs and no ass aren't attractive at all". i find a lot of people going the opposite way and calling us naturally skinny girls "anorexic, crouton-eating, stuck up, no curves bitches" and its JUST as hurtful. going the other way and insulting girls with a different body type while complaining that they make fun of yours seems a bit hypocritical to me ( because i see it soo much in my club) ..this girls with the muscular body is beautiful. curvy luscious thick girls are beautiful. petite dainty small girls are beautiful. everybody has their own body, and every guy has their own taste.
    i hate the damn body-type battle

    ^I agree but a strong beautiful woman is what this thread is about, not to compare. Women are like art, there is beauty in every visual media.

    I depends what you mean by unrealistic. If you mean out of the norm, then yes. As a female bodybuilder, I am way out of the norm, but that is a part of why I have trained so hard for the body I have.

    If you mean to imply that she is taking steroids to look like that, and that is what makes her look unrealistic, then I have to say you are wrong in making such a categorical assumption. She may be taking something, she may not be. But my point is that there are women like that and bigger who are clean.

    She is actually a Figure competitor, not a bodybuilder. I am in a drug free bodybuilding federation which tests carefully. I have never taken any steroids and I never will, but I hope to get a lot bigger than I currently am, I'm still young.

    If you are not happy with your gains, you probably need to lift heavier and change your diet. 50% of bodybuilding is the diet. You need 500 calories a day over your replacement level, every day, every week, every month. They must be lean protein and vegetables. Eat all the time like that, lift as heavy as you can, and you will see lean muscle growth.

    ^ I believe she was saying it takes harder work to have that body than just being thin. Like I'm naturaly skinny but for me to have that body I'd have to lift 5 days as weeks 2 hours and eat super clean and at least 120 grams of protein daily plus supplement. Hence why it would be unrealistic to just look like that versus just being naturaly thin doing nothing.
