Here are some excellent photos, taken by Rob Macklem, of the 48kg women at the European Championships in Italy. Yes guys, these women weight just under 106lbs!
You know, I thought if I posted some pictures of accomplished women weightlifters, it might drag a couple lurkers out of the darkness and onto the comment section. Looks like Dirk Diggler was #1 onto the floor.
The GoHeavy site has more photos as they're coming in from the competition (I think it's going on through the 20th).

Ok, I'll bite:
1. Can you tell how much weight she's lifting in those pics?
2. Would regularly attending our Saturday sessions enable me to do a flip like she did in the last pic???
