[ukmusclefan]

Hello, on the magazine page it is listed that a joanna thomas documentary was to be shown on uk channel 5, but it was a no show. Anyone have any idea when it is to be rescheduled?

When was it originally listed to be shown????


Gene,

The UK is starved of beautiful FBB talent, have you heard if there are any more Andrulla's or Joannas in the female bodybuilding arena??

The coverage of female bodybuilding in competitions over here is very minimal not to mention fbb's in general, mainly focused around the males..boooooo.

Joanna has done us brits very proud, her sister was competing a few years ago and she too would have been successful, any news about her???

Keep up the good work Gene, you guys rule :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

due to be on the 28th march at 9:00pm on channel 5. But got rescheduled, probably for some programme on sharks or dictators! :confused:

Brit Boy - Look out for Wendy McCready, the latest pro. She won the overall at the British championships last fall, and is making her pro debut at the GNC in Atlanta this summer.

I heard it's called 'Supersize she'.
I don't think it's going to be all that positive with that title.

[Beenaround]

I think I will be Ok, they just probably want to use a catchy title. They were following her around at times and interviewing her that way. I was at the Arnold last yr and they wre doing footage then.

They can down Joanna Thomas all they want, but I think she's got a lot of tenacity and will keep coming back again and again.

Hi Hans,

If you are here in the UK you should check out the Fitness Expo held at the Olympia in London on friday to sunday 13-15 of May. A big bodybuilding show will take place on saturday and sunday. The biggest and best strong woman show to be held in England will also take place. We are competing on friday and saturday. We have the strongest line up ever to do battle outside of World Strongest Woman (as shown on BBC TV).
Line up:

Aneta Florczyk (World Strongest Woman, Poland)
Anna Rosen (2nd in World Strongest Woman, Sweden)
Anki Oberg (Anna's training partner, Sweden)
Gemma Taylor (Uk Strongest Woman, England, trains at Eddie Ellwood's)
Hanne Bingle (5th in Europe and many other competitions, Denmark and England).

I am so looking forward to this competition, with 5 events over the 2 days.

Silver Dollar dead lift for max weight, starting at 150kg
Log lift for max weight
Farmer's Walk 70kg each hand 40m, for time
Yolk Race 180kg 20m, for time
Stones, 65kg, 80kg, 90kg and 100kg to be loaded onto oil drums.

Hope to see you there?

Yes I will be having fun, we are getting to know each other quite well and we have a great thing going on with friend ship and staying in touch between competitions, which is so great. Even though we compete against each other, we also encourage each other and cheer for each and everyone.
I will see if I can get some great pictures and sendmthem to you with a little report, then you could maybe post it here?

Best wishes to you
Hanne
