Women's BB on BBC Radio 1

[pumpfiction]

The posting might be a little bit late but BBC Radio 1 is currently airing Adele Robert's show on FBBing in UK.
Adele Roberts looks at why bodybuilding is more popular than ever among young women.

Over the last few years, the number of young women in the UK taking up bodybuilding has increased dramatically. With a similar growth in interest across other forms of strength training, and with weights starting to replace the treadmill as the new fitness norm, Adele Roberts wants to know why strong is now better than skinny for so many young women. Adele, a former competitive bodybuilder, has spent 30 days following a strict diet and fitness regime in a bid to discover what it takes to become a superwoman.

Is this an empowering method for young women to take control of their bodies, or merely another fitness fad, causing women to question their natural body image? With help from personal trainers, competitive bodybuilders, doctors and dietitians, and those closest to her, Adele pushes herself to the limits to discover what she gains and loses, mentally and physically, during her month-long bodybuilding challenge.

Don't know yet the athletes interviewed as I'm listening but there's now a snippet taking place at a competition. I suspect the focus will be more on figure and fitness though. The overall coverage sounds very positive anyway.

That's on iPlayer as well. BBC3 or BBC4, I can't remember. It's a fairly good show with a bit of flexing, but not a huge amount. There is a small section with a sensational blonde girl though. Very muscular, and Victoria's Secret looks.

Just noticed your post now. Yeah one of the ladies was really worth watching. It think her name was Brittany Rhodes.
