I dig tattoos, but I don't think that one would be good there. Inner arm would look better, perhaps even her inner wrist, given how small that tattoo is.
Here are some shots of wifey post-gym pumped arm! Further a new pool for you. She wants a new tattoo on her right forearm, but not sure if in the inner or outer side. She applied a temporary one to get an idea... so where would you suggest to place it to be sexier and involving?
She's looking great, Mister_ICS. I would discourage a tattoo there, where it would cover some of her great veins. But if she were to get one, I'd say inner. Looking forward to more post gym pics...
It's a made up story. I was going to post but it's not worth it...
TBH it's not far from my real life experiences with one of my exes, except for the cradle carry (I don't think she could do it). But otherwise:
She was a champion runner and ex gymnast, really small, like 158 cm, but extremely athletic, muscled and fit.
She always was strong but when we got into bouldering arm wrestling her became pointless, she'd use her weaker arm and just slam my stronger arm into the table. Games of mercy were always completely one-sided, she just effortlessly muscled me down to the floor.
Do remember too that if you're originally European based and move to Dubai the mobility is much easier to go back and tour Europe (or just go home) than it is from US or AUS.
Regarding taxes, even if Australia had the same tax structure as the US, $100k annually is FAR more than any gym is paying a coach that isn't the owner, and unless you're the biggest gyms around you're not pulling in that kind of money.
U.S. citizens should be aware that - unless they renounce U.S. citizenship and give up the U.S. passport (which almost no one ever does) - then they are still liable for all federal taxes, even if they're paying no income tax to the UAE. I think it's probably similar for Australians. Foreign tax credits on our Form 1040 would be dictated by IRS code, which in the case of U.S. ex-pats might be partially dependent on an existing tax treaty. 😵💫
But someone who never plans to return to their country of origin might very well decide to stop filing or paying income taxes.
The UAE is starting to change its tax policies for foreign workers on long/permanent contracts, but it seems gig work is still under the old rules for now. So, a girl can move there for a minute and bank a lot of cash fairly quickly in order to fund her lifestyle.
Under the "Foreign Earned Income Exclusion" if you live and work outside of the US for at least 330 consecutive days during the tax year, you are not subject to most US taxes.
I don't know lots of examples, but Stefanie Flesher is one such person
Bunch of lesser knowns as well. It’s like schmoe heaven there now. Have your choice of having a session with a different women each day. The only problem if you’re not rich, is that you’d be broke by the end of the week!
Helle Trevino moved there too. She’s been in Denmark as of late, so maybe with her rumoured retirement from competition she’ll be moving again.
Helle's home country is Denmark so she's just costing friends and family. She told me at the Olympia she plans on competing this year especially since she placed really well at the Olympia.
There was a video I just saw of Colette Guimond crushing a watermelon with her legs, she must have an ungodly amount of strength. She did it standing up without even holding the watermelon in place, just closing her legs around it and smushing it completely in half with no resistence whatsoever.
Audrey Miller is another one with that consistently posts clean singles at 225.
It's really fascinating to watch the women. I know there's a lot of smaller guys pushing a lot of weight, but the joke in the visual difference between a 80kg male lifter and 80kg female lifter is funny. But a lot of these women are pushing 225+ at 135 or less. Their ratios are much more impressive than your average pretty strong guy.
I've seen a few women pulling 3x bodyweight, 2x bodweight or more squat, and 2x bodyweight bench. For me that would require another 100lbs on my deadlift, another 10-15 on my squat, and over 100 on my bench press.
ALthough she doesn't have a bench at 225 yet, Ashley Wilson just set some records with a 407.9 squiat, 192.9 bench, and 507.1 deadlift at 147lbs. I know she's taking training way more seriously than I am (i have no plans to compete at my age lmao and I'm not old) but aside from her bench her deadlift and squat are the same-ish but I have about 65lbs on her.
Even i can do that. if there is something on the ground like a towel. i can just grab it with my toes and then i lift my leg up and take it in my hand. and i am not flexible and quite weak.

Also, she looks ripped. Nice job.
Math is fun!
One omission is the Girl of the Week.

Been beaten by a girl in about 15 seconds. Beaten by another in about 5 seconds.
Would that mean the second girl was 3 times stronger, since she won 3 times as fast?
Can this be estimated?
It was sit-down arm wrestling. No special techniques, just basic.
No, Wima was at Cheerleaders in South Philadelphia. I'm pretty sure Wilma was even more massive than Gia.
Mine would be hidden gems , also multiple answers are allowed if you have multiple favorites of them
Add yours if I forgot any

I think this was Vilma C@ez

Ok here are some links in a scroll thru on TikTok of who is benching 225 or 100kg, depending on their location:

Didn’t have to go very far to find those
