Bodybuilder Emma B Opens Up About Bullying She Faced Over Appearance

emma b before and after

Model-turned-bodybuilder Emma B admitted that she has suffered bullying after she revealed her new physique

“It really hurt and I cried and for hours,” the Daily Mail quoted her as telling Now magazine.

“People said I looked old and like a drag queen. It’s not for everyone, but I’m not emaciated.

“We just wear the tan and the make-up for the shows, but it’s not a look you’d wear to Tesco or walking down the street,” she said.

If you’re looking for some fresh motivation to get into the gym, all you have to do is take one look at Ruby Carter-Pikes.

The 64-year-old mother of four and great-grandmother’s rock-hard body is no illusion — those six-pack abs, chiseled legs and buff arms are real. What’s also real are the numerous fitness awards she’s been racking up while competing against women less than half her age.

Did we mention she’s usually dressed in nothing more than a string bikini?

2012 London Olympics: Monica Brant in the masters women’s 400m trials

monica brant

Monica Brant is an icon. She has graced every fitness magazine cover from Ironman to Oxygen, and stood on the stages of the Arnold Classic and the Olympia. She is also well known for her glowing personality, F.E.M. camps, and can-do attitude.

However, when Brant announced that she would participate in track and field some people were surprised, but should not have been. Brant has been a true athlete all of her life, regardless of being on stage or not.

Saturday, June 30, was no different. Brant moved from the Olympia stage to the WBFF, only to cross the finish lines of the 2012 London Olympic trials. She participated in the Master’s Women’s International 400 meter race, and made the announcement on Facebook that she placed third.

“Placed 3rd in the Olympic Trials tonight. I led the pack until the last 90 m. The 400m World Champion and the Outdoor National 400m Champion came in 1st and 2nd. I just need a lil’ more time to condition that last bit! Next up is the Outdoor Nationals in Chicago in July and hoping to go to Worlds in Brazil in October. Right now I am enjoying my Proto Whey shake and taking pictures. It has been an amazing experience and I feel so blessed by God. Thank you to EVERYONE for all of your love and support. I appreciate and love you all! xoxo”

Oksana Grishina at the Arnold 2011

Russian born Oksana Grishina caused a mild touch of controversy when she burst onto the pro fitness scene a while back as her routines were so different from the norm – artistic with a distinct dramatic flair, but decidedly slower then her colleagues. This year in 2011 at the Arnold Sports Festival, they saved Oksana for last, and living up to her reputation her routine was unique but she picked up the pace and blew everyone away. Watch this video of this past weekend(and Oksana, we Love and adore you!):
