One thing I notice at the gym is the weird stares I get from some women this happened last Sunday. Most women in the gym lift 2 to 6kg and here I am gritting my teeth and leg pressing 310kg.

In weird way I enjoy the looks I get it allows me to focus and get my head in the game..... I'm not here to put on a show or dress up in skimpy clothes, just to get my muscle on!!!

Women move away from the cardio machines climb up the stairs and enter the weight room start small get comfy and pump weight; it is one of the most exhilarating feelings ever. I used to feel self conscious but now I don’t care what people think!

What I have noticed, is that most guys at the gym who are what I see as hardcore are encouraging. Some of the others feel that it is appropriate to laugh at me or question if I’m not scared of get manly. At times I have a little chuckle to my self ... as I have a sneaky suspicion that my legs are stronger than theirs, oops.

I have added a picture of Pauline Nordin, who for me has one of the best bodies in womens bodybuilding.

Welcome to my world !!!

Welcome to my blog, I will use this to document my progress of sculpting my body, by using a male dominated technique - BODYBUILDING!!!

I have been through various fitness phases and have now got a clear idea of what my body should look like and the way to get there. When I say bodybuilding I’m sure it conjures up the vision of masculine women, making strange grunting noises, dressed in drag and butt slapping training partners while screaming yeah baby.

I will take you into the world of a woman, who many believe has strayed into the wrong side of the gym, updating my blog with reviews of products that I use along the way, tasty recipes for all and be of assistance to anyone wanting to enter the wonderful world with me.
