Title: Industry Books?
Post by: LifterChick on May 08, 2006, 04:23:44 PM
Does anybody know of any books written about the industry of bodybuilding, fitness, and figure?
There seems to be a plethora of great and interesting stories just on here.
I am not looking for books about training so much.  I am not looking to compete and I am very happy with the way I look, so I don’t need a book with the “pro’s secrets” to lifting and dieting.
I am looking stories about the pressures, the effects on life and family.  Sort of a behind the scenes look at the business of bodybuilding.

Even though it was fiction, I enjoyed reading Chemical Pink.  It's not about the industry, so much as the transfomation a woman goes through on bodybuilding chemicals, with lots of gratuitous sex thrown in to try and sell copies
