I really like this gallery of pictures taken of [female bodybuilder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creatine-monohydrate) Irene Andersen. Whether you like her style or not, you can’t deny that the pictures are compelling to look at. In its extremes, body building is of course a form of [body modification](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doves-super-bowl-ad).

The images become even more astonishing when you learn Irene Andersen is a 44-year-old mother of three. Her look is also the result of her life’s work, having started [bodybuilding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bodypump-heavy) at the tender age of only 15. I find bodybuilders fascinating out of the context of their sport, and am most certainly going to be keeping an eye out for Irene in the future (even though I don’t like it).
