@Enanurri No, I like her because she looks awesome, to me she is a woman with muscles Fair enough femininity is everyone's tastes. Its no different to a woman with fat or being skinny, i have seen many women who look skinny and they look like a man.
Considering the idiotic training regimen she goes through it is quite obvious she is on the sauce plus is blessed with great genetics. I cannot believe someone who was the first woman to bench press over 300lbs would be wasting her time with cable raises with peanut weight and her "trainer" telling her to fight him through the range. It certainly rises the issue of how any training regime works if you take steroids and have above average genetics. Props to her though, she looks great.

timing and the psyche of acceptance of the culture of women's muscles....now its more accepted...even sexy too bad...tho some still slo to get in the groove.....
Please , if it's possible and good , can someone download this movie. They have the original Pumping Iron downloaded. I wish they'd put this out on DVD.
Bev is actually very pretty and she has inspired so many bodybuilders, male and female, over the years that she is one of the women that has impacted fitness and weight training the most over the years. If you did research, you would know she is one of the world's premier trainers now because of her success.
At regular gym there probably are not that many... Bev Francis did a 150kg bench, that's more than 330pounds. And she also squatted almost 230kg, that's almost 510 pounds.
Go to any normal gym and you won't normally see that kind of feats...
"At regular gym there probably are not that many"..."330 bench press & 510 pound squat"
I don't know what the gyms are like in Finland but here in the U.S. those lifts are nothing. There are numerous guys in my local gym that can bench press more than 330 and 400 lb. bench presses are very common (including myself) & a few have done 500. I have even seen a 600 lb. bench press done in training by a local lifter.
500 Lb. Squats are also very common for those guys that do squat.
Well, plenty of World's Strongest Men and champion power lifters have come from Finland so I'd say that we do have some hardcore gyms here too.
But for me regular gyms mean "commercial gyms" and such a gym doesn't mean hardcore lifters. At least in here... I don't know about US, maybe commercial gyms are hardcore there.
As for my gym, we have guys who have done 500+ benches in official plifting competitions and squats ~800. But if I go to any normal gym...I don't see anything like that here.
@JohnNively Yeah, but don't forget you don't need to over develop certain muscles. And abuse of certain exercises in that manor can leave you injured, even permenantly crippled.
@CaneFu To me you should to consider the time! Jessy Owens ran 100 m in 10.30 seconds..today isn't a great thing but at that time was the best. The same for the bench press, in 1980 a male athlete powerlifter class 75 kg who benched 140 kg(like Bev) could take a 6/7 place in a IPF world championship.
Consider the times? Bev Francis was just as juiced up as anyone and if you think differently you are completely naive. Steroids were cheap and really easy to get in the eighties as law enforcement had not yet begun to crack down on them. In my local gym a bottle of Dianabol (100 x 5 mg. tablets) sold for just $20. Considering all of this Bev Francis was nothing exceptional other that she was one of the first women to go into the sport.
@CaneFu I agree, but today the drugs are better. If you follow powerlifting for years like me can see that every year the performances are increased. In the '80 Arnold squatted 180 kg x 8 reps and was big and doped;today Becca Swanson(big and doped but female) does 1 rep with 387 kg! If Bev never lost in 6 world championchips she was exceptional!
Bev won 6 world championships and set several world records because women's powerlifting never existed before. She was on the ground floor of a brand new sport and many of the records she broke were her own. This is evidenced by her failure to do well when she turned to women's bodybuilding where a lot more competition already existed.
@Neil6000 "Strongest human being" it's a bullshit, but when she benched 140 kd in 1980 with a bodyweight of 74 she could be in the world class with the men and was at national level in the squat and dead lift.
@Moremooremore I think she's kinda hot too. If you think about it, her sex appeal probably comes not from the fact that she looks "manly" but you know she has enough muscle to snap your dick off - let alone give it the time of it's life.
@Moremooremore TYPICAL BEV DRUGGED UP TO THE EYEBALLS AS USUAL,REMEMBER GAIL MULHALL BEV, YOUR MATE WHO WAS BANNED IN 1981,ALSO ANOTHER MATE OF YOURS DR ORESTE JOSEPH BRUNI WHO SUPPLIED THE DRUGS FOR YOU. YES BEV I DO KNOW YOUR HISTORY . GENETICS MY ARSE .OBVIOUSLY MOREMOOREMORE YOUR THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO DO RESEARCH YOU DORK.
That's Steve Michalik. If you can, get the short piece on him called "The Power and the Gory".It is an fantastic tale of colossal drug taking,hardcore training and general lunacy in the seventies and early eighties.
I think this has to be the best clip of a woman working out, It has everything, - strength, determination,pain,aggression and power, does everyone agree or can anyone suggest better????
I think Steve didn't agree a physique like Bev's. I think I read that somewhere. If I am not mistaken. Can someone please tell me what he really felt?
I tried doing those last week, but the cables kept getting tangled up at the point when the clips and/or handles crossed. They must have done several takes to get it right.
I liked her better when she was a thrower.
