Download or read book Bodybuilding For Women written by Charles Maldonado and published by Speedy Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bodybuilding is not just about lifting weights and getting your body bulky. Bodybuilding is a sport that originated back in Europe during the 19th century which was more publicized by photography. There were pictures of body builders being sent to be used for promoting products so that people would buy them. The sport of bodybuilding for women started in the 1960s, but the criteria for judging during the first contest for females were all based on the muscular development. This began with the U.S. Women's National Physique Championship back in 1978. This is the one that started it all for female bodybuilding.
Book Synopsis Strong and Hard Women by : Tanya Bunsell
Download or read book Strong and Hard Women written by Tanya Bunsell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Females with large muscles evoke strong reactions from men and women, often involving disgust, discomfort, anger and threat. The controversial nature of female bodybuilding has caused a significant rupture on feminist ground. Whilst proponents claim that female bodybuilding is a way of empowering and liberating women, others see it as a form of corporeal entrapment. This book investigates the controversy. Do women who pump iron resist physical restrictions of imposed femininity, or are they engaged in an ultimately oppressive quest for ‘perfect bodies’? In an original two year ethnographic study based in the South of England, Tanya Bunsell immersed herself into the world of female bodybuilders. By mapping these extraordinary women’s lives, the research illuminates the pivotal spaces and essential lived experiences that make up the female bodybuilder. Whilst the women appear to be embarking on an ‘empowering’ radical body project for themselves, the consequences of their activity remains culturally ambivalent. This research exposes the ‘Janus-faced’ nature of female bodybuilding, exploring the ways in which the women negotiate, accommodate and resist pressures to engage in more orthodox and feminine activities and appearances. This book will be of interest to academics and students in the fields of gender studies, the sociology of sport, the body and research methodology.

Book Synopsis Feminist Figure Girl by : Lianne McTavish
Download or read book Feminist Figure Girl written by Lianne McTavish and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminist Figure Girl chronicles the transformation of art history professor Lianne McTavish, from a university professor into an extraordinarily tanned and crystal-encrusted bikini-wearing "figure girl."Figure competitions seek a softer appearance than traditional forms of bodybuilding but still require rigorous weightlifting, an extreme protein diet, and many hours of posing in high heels. While training for a figure show, McTavish combined autoethnographic methods, participant observation, and feminist theory to find new ways of thinking about physique culture and the female body. The author, who specializes in critical visual culture and the history of the body, explores such contemporary issues as body image, fat studies, identity politics, and "postfeminism," while rethinking fitness culture, diet regimes, feminist politics, reproductive activism, performance art, and the social function of photography. Written in a lively personal style reminiscent of McTavish's popular blog, she clearly explains the complex ideas stemming from the theoretical work of such writers as Judith Butler, Simone de Beauvoir, Michel Foucault, Iris Marion Young, Edmund Husserl, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty. The book also includes many photos documenting McTavish's physical transformation.
