Growing up, I used to go to a book store that sold everthing, including body building magazines (other than what mags we see today).  The was a magazine called Natural Bodybuilders, both men and women, no steroid or muscle enhancers and for the ladies, breast enhancement, just ways to build.  Now I would like to know is if today there are still such things as "Natural" bodybuilders.   

Check feds like WNBF, OCB or the rising DFAC.

The reason why natural bodybuilding don't get much attention, cause pro bodybulding has deeper pockets. Many get sponsorship from the supplement companies. Cause natural means no supplements or enhancement drugs there are few companies sponsoring it.

The only reason is there is no real market for natural bodybuilding. Women cannot get the mass and cuts we all love without drugs. You guys who cry over these girls downsizing to physique class would really have a fit if every contest went drug free.

Natural BB's use supplements. Pretty much everything sold in a nutrition store is allowable with perhaps the exception of something like DHEA. Why wouldn't they use protein powder and aminos? They don't get attention because they're small and not as conditioned as people using PEDs. Right or wrong, you aren't going to sell your supplements using the picture of somebody you'd see at your local gym, who's not even one of the bigger people in the room.

Not true, I present Christy Resendes. She is a natural competitor and has a wonderful physique. She's pretty big to me.

She's always claimed to be drug free and I'm not one to question her. I will say she's an exception, if she's really drug free. Very few women can look like her without drugs.

She looks pretty small to me with this tape measure around her arm. And that is big for a natural - if she's natural.

This is Jenny Arthur Olympic weightlifting athlete. She is muscular and she competes in the most drug tested athletic event. Yes, women can gain muscle with out drugs.

Do you really believe Jenny Arthur could win an NPC bodybuilding/physique event without drugs?

Ignore the point and change the subject. Nobody said women can't gain any muscle without drugs, though that would be limiting. The context of the conversation is bodybuilding, which implies size and leanness. I think if Jenny Arthur had the same BF% as Christy Resendes who's the same height, she'd be even smaller. Certainly in the upper body. Care to return to the topic subject?

Christy at 15.

I would have to agree. With her conditioning she's at fitness or figure level. I won't say she's not taking something or either she has great genetics.

I wouldn't be surprised if Christy R . is natural . But certainly very few fbb's are natural . But that being said Tina Lockwood is the one exception with or without stuff , had the ability to build of any woman . Tina age 19

Well, that cannot be determined  by just looking at her. She is lifting for strength not building a physique. Jenny Arthur may have the potential, but she trains for strength not muscular hypertrophy. She seems to have a good base. This is just pure speculation. I would not say its impossible, but extremely difficult.
