The muscular ladies! Know 5 female celebrities who have taken bodybuilding to new heights!
Bodybuilding is a profession in which bodybuilders line up and perform poses in front of a panel of judges. In this, the muscles are subjected to progressive resistance exercises and thus developed. The muscles of the bodybuilders stand out and are thus evaluated and scored.
Females too participate in these acts and there is an increasing number of female bodybuilders in this field. Kaitlin Monaghan is one such female bodybuilder who has been participating professionally for the past three years.
She said:
“BEFORE I walk onto that stage, it’s nerve-racking. I feel so many emotions, all at once: excitement and fear. I think to myself, I’ve put all this hard work in for what, a couple of minutes on stage? When I’m standing on there and everyone is cheering my name, it makes everything that I’ve put my body through physically and emotionally worth it. It’s so much more than just competing: it’s my life.”
She added:
“Training is easy but posing is difficult; walking around in heels and posing a certain way is challenging.”
She continued:
“Bodybuilding has changed my life. I love the challenge, I’m stronger, not just physically but also emotionally. I struggled with anxiety and body building helped me by giving me a focus.”
