Lifting Weights: Sculpting the Body into an Artform

Abstract

I believe the Body is a perfectly designed machine, many people underestimate the body’s ability to do marvelous things. One of the many great things the body can do is maneuver weight. What has this to do with art-science? At first glance weight lifting may not seem like anything but part of an athlete’s routine, however when we think about women there is much more that is to do with aesthetics and real science.
