Strong Like Her brings a powerful mix of history and inspiration. While the title implies a bent toward muscles and lifting, proper due is given to women of all sport, from pedestrianism to running to tennis and, of course, bodybuilding and power lifting. It's a wonderful tribute to the adversity that women have had to (and still have to) overcome in order to live the best versions of themselves.

With full-page color bios and quotes, you'll be inspired to push your body beyond what you believe it's limits are and to reconsider your views on what the female body should look and feel like. An inspiring, engaging read!

Amazing book filled with athletes in both history and present day, who have helped to shape women's sports today. I really enjoyed the profiles and pictures they included of strong women across sports, from Alicia Napolean-Espinosa to Misty Copeland.
