    From what I saw these are regular looking in shape girls. They probably go to the gym a bit, do workout classes, I would doubt anything intense like for bodybuilding and even "real" fitness competitions. Also, being blessed with a big butt and boobs helps.

    NO WAY! I am prepping for a competition and lifting weights is A MUST!!!! I'm in the gym almost every day!! And "real" fitness competitions?! You're lucky I'm new to the circuit... some of my friends who've been doing it for a while would be even more offended than I. You should research before you make comments like that. ... And no, looking at pictures does NOT count as research.

    They probably do lift, but not often. I agree they are 20 to 25%.

    20-25%?!?! I would like to know what you people are basing your knowledge on... I'm at 18% and will be cutting SIGNIFICANTLY before my contest. Are you talking about random on the beach contests or actual NPC/IFBB contests? HUUUUUGE difference. Do some research before you make ridiculous claims. Do you even know what 20-25% body fat LOOKS LIKE?!

    Yes (as stated by the poster above me), this thread is very specifically not about fitness competitions (if you read the thread). It is about a video of girls at a beach bikini contest. He posted the video, that was what this thread was about. He is saying that he likes the young girls in the beach bikini contest (like a spring break kind of thing) and that he thinks women don't need to lift weights. He thinks that a woman having a nice figure is all based on fat, and not muscle. And yes, I do know what bodyfat % looks like. Did you watch the video that this thread is about? Or read the comments?

    It's based on bone structure, fat, muscle under the fat, skin, youth, genetics.

    And bodyfat percent plays a factor in the appearance of the muscle. With less bodyfat, the muscles are more defined. But, a women can lift weights and have good muscles, but also choose to maintain a certain bodyfat level. We are responding because this post is ignorantly trying to discourage women from strength training. You are the one that does not understand what this conversation is actually about.
