Bodybuilding is a form of body modification involving intensive muscle hypertrophy; an individual who engages in this activity is referred to as a bodybuilder. In competitive bodybuilding, bodybuilders display their physiques to a panel of judges, who assign points based on their appearance. The muscles are revealed through a combination of fat loss, oils, and tanning (or tanning lotions) which combined with lighting make the definition of the muscle group more distinct.

People well-known for being bodybuilders include Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lou Ferrigno, and Charles Atlas. Currently, three time winner Jay Cutler holds the title of Mr. Olympia, as the world's top bodybuilder.

Where in London might I find a bodybuilding class?
Q. I've looked over many books and internet sites and theoretically I could build my own rutine. I feel that with things like this it is best to have some guidance - at least for the first few months - after which I'll continue alone. There are gyms around but do they offer classes/advice on bodybuilding? What is the best way to start something like this?

A. www.bodybuilding.com. It has a section built for ladies, it's great to see girls considering bodybuilding. But please, make sure you do it all naturally. Girls in natural bodybuilding look hot, but girls on steroids look nasty.
