Özet

Woman who practice sports professionally are under constant pressure in terms of profession and cultural and social environment. Recently there is a breakthrough in terms of about female body. the studies reveal that today, females are just as involved in muscle gain behaviours as men. There is a new trend for female athletes to participate in non-lean sports. Traditional emphasis on slim female figures is changing in the modern world. Displaying muscular male and female figures became quite common on media lately. There is concrete argument that female athletes practicing non-lean sports experience less body dissatisfaction compared to lean sports athletes. Practice of non-lean sports is a new focus for females in terms of breaking down social body perceptions, proving their potentials, gaining status and improving confidence.
