DO YOU PUMP IRON?


 



The 1985 documentary Pumping Iron 2, featured Bev Francis and  Rachel Mclish. Rachel won Ms. Olympia in 1980 & 1982, bodybuilding's elite competition for women. Rachel Mclish is the sexy and muscular body, Bev Francis is the extremely masculine looking power-lifter who became a bodybuilder.

In 2015, Ms. Olympia was abolished from the scene, stating that the competition became a freak show. Women's bodybuilding went from a desirable achievement to a steroid induced happy hour. Women were becoming man-like, defeating the purpose.

I haven't been up on the bodybuilding scene in a while. However, just a few weeks ago, I went to a bodybuilding show run by Bev Francis's Gym in Syosset, NY. What I encountered was the other extreme, women were competing not for what you could accomplish for your body at the gym (cellulite and jiggling legs!), but for a slutty display! I say let's bring back the Rachel Mclish style!

Did you ever see Pumping Iron 2?
