No one woman in this thread is eactly the same, they each bring their own unique physcaility to the screen. Wether they train with weights or not. Here British Martial Artist Zara Phythian, is in the middle of performing a set of curls. There's a lot of pressure from movie studios, for people performer's to look the part. Which Zara clearly does.
