Muscular Women In Books

Jun 26, 2026 - permalink

Recently I found the book "Muscular Beauties In Focus". The book is available globally in English, and a German edition is also available under the title "Muskulöse Schönheiten im Fokus". I bought the english version and I love this book. It contains storytelling combined with great photos of beautiful muscular women. It was written and shot by the sports photographer Robby Brand. Available in all bookshops, for example Amazon, Hugendubel, jpc, Thalia, BoD ... https://www.jpc.de/jpcng/books/detail/-/art/r...

I recommend it to everyone interested in muscular women.

Does anyone know of other great books about muscular women ? Any recommendations ????

I remember my cousin bought a bodybuilding book about building muscle of coarse and a few pages had female bodybuilders in it. Heck back in 8th grade health class had a picture of a female bodybuilder though it was just the back.

I looked it up for some reason the cover looks super 80s but they say it's from 1935. I know they put newer style covers on old books all the time and you should not judge a book by it but. this doesn't seem to be something someone in 1935 would make

The author, Harry, was born in 1935, and the book is from 1990.

Thanks for the recommendation. The book seems to be interesting, but hard to get these days.

Body : Crews, Harry, 1935-2012: Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive https://archive.org/details/body00crewrich

Body was published in 1990.

Crews was an immensely talented novelist, a student of the Southern Agrarian Andrew Lytle, and a favorite of Sean Penn and Madonna, who wanted to make films out of some of his novels, though they never did so.

Yes, I have these books too, they are great. Bill Dobbins is a fantastic photographer.

There is another great book I can recommend. About 230 Pages of great photos of beautiful muscular women. I bought it from the following website, because it is only available there: https://amazingmusclebeauties.com/book.html

Robby Brand got his start shooting for Her Bicep years ago. He started up the German website "Amazing Muscle Beauties" maybe 20 years ago. He's an excellent photographer of women. For me at least, Robby and Zoltan are the two best photogs in Europe for muscle women.

Female Bodybuilders by Martin Schoeller. This is an art photography book that features portraits of many of the classic FBBs. Martin Schoeller is a well known photographer known for portraits of many famous people.

Thanks for your info. I didn't know about his start with HB years ago. But for sure Robby is an excellent photographer of beautiful muscular women. Through the book "Muscular Beauties In Focus" I also found his website, and I like it. His stories in the book are not bad either.

Any more recommendations for books where muscular women are mentioned?
