Women's Physique World

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Women's Physique World is a magazine covering female bodybuilding and fitness and figure competition, published since 1984.

The first issue was dated Fall, 1984, and featured Lori Walkup on the cover. Subsequently, the magazine has been published with varying frequency, ranging from two to six issues annually.

Women's Physique World also produces documentary style videos that feature the women posing in non-contest settings in bikinis, dresses, and other outfits. Most of the videos feature bodybuilders or fitness and figure competitors, but athletes from sports such as arm wrestling and track & field are occasionally featured. The videos often include footage of the subjects performing gym workouts, as well as interview segments. WPW has also produced a number of contest videos. These typically feature NPC level shows, though WPW also produced the video for the 1999 Ms. Olympia contest.
