Good luck to Damo, who is competing in his first-ever bodybuilding show at the PCA in Manchester today! 💪🏆

It’s been quite a journey for Damo. He has wanted to step on stage for many years, but family commitments, his career, and a couple of horrific injuries suffered whilst playing rugby have all delayed his opportunity to compete.

Damo is not just a member of Top Bodies — he is one of my best mates. I’ve known him since well before I took over the gym, back when we were both members and training together.

He is a hugely popular member of the Top Bodies family, and from everyone at the gym, we want to wish you the very best of luck today.

Most importantly, enjoy every moment of the day. You’ve already done us proud with the incredible journey and commitment it has taken to get you to this stage. Stepping on that stage today is something you’ve worked towards for a long time, and you deserve to enjoy it! 👏💪

Good luck, mate — the whole Top Bodies family is behind you! ❤️🏆

The Golden Era wasn’t just about building muscle—it was about changing perceptions.

In the 1980s, female bodybuilding emerged from the shadows and into the spotlight. It celebrated physiques that were strong, athletic, symmetrical, and undeniably feminine, challenging outdated ideas of what women could be.

Pioneers like Tina, founder of Top Bodies Gym, helped shape that movement by creating a space where women could train, compete, and thrive. Top Bodies became more than just a gym—it was a destination. Legendary bodybuilders, including Tonya Knight, visited and trained here, leaving behind stories, memories, and a legacy that still lives on within these walls.

Today, that legacy continues. Athletes like Maddie embody the same dedication, discipline, and passion that defined the pioneers who came before her—proving that strength, confidence, and femininity have never been mutually exclusive.

The faces change. The legacy doesn’t. 💪✨
