The Last of the Iron Sisters: SWOLE Ep. 2
In 2015, the women’s bodybuilding division was dropped from Ms. Olympia – marking the possible end of women’s bodybuilding. The Wings of Strength organization stepped in and started the Rising Phoenix competition to give these women a platform to compete.
In episode 2 of Swole, we follow pro-bodybuilder Helle Trevino as she prepares for this competition and talk to 8-time Ms. Olympia Lenda Murray and the founders of Wings of Strength about how they’re pushing to keep the sport alive.
