Professional Female Bodybuilding: Self-Determination Theory Approach By Mark T Suffolk1 Abstract Female professional bodybuilders have received a substantial amount of scholarly and media attention. However, investigations have largely been conducted from a pathologizing perspective. This exploratory research investigated the female bodybuilding community from a positive development perspective. Thematic analysis was applied to twenty four publicly available online video interviews of female professional bodybuilders ranging in age from 29-49 years to understand the reasons as to why females take up the sport of bodybuilding, and to identify factors that contribute towards continued participation. Identified themes were framed within Self-Determination Theory. The findings indicate that pursuing bodybuilding can provide mechanisms that link the activity to psychological well-being by enhancing autonomy, competence, and relatedness.

Department of ih^UrynttL^ /Cfn^^CS^ The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This study aimed to build upon the literature on women's athleticism by using bodybuilding as a vehicle for exploring associations between women's muscularity, notions of gender and bodily empowerment. Feminist cultural analyses of women's bodybuilding have claimed that muscularity is constrained by gendered meanings surrounding the sport and the female body (cf. Bordo, 1993; Coakley, 1994; Schulze, 1990). The purpose was to explore how personal interpretations of muscularity by competitive female bodybuilders contributed to their definitions of gender and empowerment through the body. Three competitive female bodybuilders were recruited. Ethnographic techniques were employed, including observations of subjects' training sessions, ongoing fieldnotes, and individual in-depth interviews to uncover the women's interpretations of their muscularity, gender and bodily empowerment.

    Gender and Bodily Transformation in Women's Flat Track Roller

    Gender and Bodily Transformation in Women’s Flat Track Roller Derby Rayanne Streeter Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science In Sociology Toni Calasanti, Co-Chair Christine Labuski, Co-Chair Sarah Ovink May 6, 2014 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Roller derby, Bodies, Gender, Sexuality, Violence Copyright 2014, Rayanne Streeter Gender and Bodily Transformation in Women’s Flat Track Roller Derby Rayanne Streeter ABSTRACT Sports as a social institution reflects and reshapes social values and power relations in broader society, including gender relations. For instance, the ways in which bodies are used in sports produces gender; as such sport has been shown to reaffirm men’s power over women and ritualize and embed aggression, strength, and violence into the male body. Roller derby, which is a full-contact, highly physical sport, offers women the opportunity to renegotiate these stereotypical gendered and embodied ideas of gender. Drawing on bodily theory, contact sport, and self-defense literatures this study explores how female roller derby players undergo such negotiations of femininity and womanhood and how one’s body plays a role in this. This was done through the analysis of 17 semi-structured interviews with female flat track roller derby players in the United States. Findings show similarities to self-defense where skaters’ notions of womanhood and femininity are transformed through a variety of ways and these are related to experiencing bodies in new and transgressive ways. One key finding demonstrates how these transformations are complicated by biological narratives and understandings of violence.

Also, judgement is inevitably involved in categorising papers into sample groups and there are different ways of representing the research landscape.

    Bodybuilding Women: Transforming Perception on Female Bodybuilders

    190 191 New York ed.: SR10. Bodybuilding WoMen: Varisco, Daniel M. “Muslims and the Media in the Transforming Perception on Female Bodybuilders Blogosphere.” Contemporary Islam 4 (2010): 157-77. Marilyn Pichardo Professor Letizia Schmid Abstract: Societal constructions of gender identity rely heavily on body image. In this paper I address how norms of acceptable body constructions encourage and discourage muscle development in women. Separating gender identities can be either: a limiting gateway that confines women to fixed ideologies of femininity, or a liberating pathway that enables women to redefine what femininity entails. I will be discussing what is considered feminine versus masculine and how society needs to have a separation between the two. My research on the subject reveals that the motivation behind male and female bodybuilding is similar and different in various ways. Both women and men are constantly at war with their bodies in an effort to create the perfect, most fit version of themselves often causing them to resort to bodybuilding. Females are particularly attracted to bodybuilding because it is a rebellious sport that facilitates the reconstruction of norms. This rebellious attitude against socially constructed gender norms, ironically, creates similar results both in men and women: confidence, empowerment and control of the body. Women must negotiate their identity and balance muscular development with normative femininity in order to be socially accepted. This balance is in essence what enables female bodybuilding to occur. Bodybuilding is a method used by men and women as a form of expression. It is a transcending tool that enables the reconstruction of societal notions generally define feminine and masculine roles.
