Manak belongs to Uttar Pradesh. It is known that she was teased as ‘ugly’ by her friends for the fragile body she has since her childhood. This motivated her and she got into gym at the age of 17, which proved as a boon for her. She recently grabbed IBBFF Ms India 2016 and went on to become no 1 ranking Indian Female Bodybuilder.

Yashmeen Chauhan – Gurgaon, Haryana

Yashmeen Manak is the 2016 IBBFF Miss India

Yashmeen Chauhan is one of the top Indian female bodybuilders and otherwise known as the ‘Iron Lady’ for good reason.

The 38-year-old fitness professional and strength athlete, from Gurgaon, Haryana, is a multiple award winner in the sport.

Yashmeen beat the young Indian female bodybuilder, Bhumika Sharma, to two gold medals at the 2016 IBBFF Miss India competition.

After winning the Women’s Physique and Women’s Fitness categories, Yashmeen was named the 2016 Indian Body Building and Fitness Federation (IBBFF) Miss India.

Impressively, she also won bronze at the IFBB’s 50th Asian Bodybuilding and Fitness Championships in Beijing, China, 2016.

But now, after two decades of intense training, Yashmeen is focussing her efforts into the gym she owns in Gurgaon.

Yashmeen’s Advice: “Never compare your body with others. Every person is different, and so are you! Work towards sculpting the best out of your unique body, and it may come out better than you could imagine. Patience, discipline, and meticulous hard work will take you where you want to be.”

Don’t you think I have a pretty odd name for an Indian girl?” asks  Europa Bhowmik , pulling smoothly on the rowing machine, her arms moving in rhythm, her biceps rippling. It’s the self-unconscious question of a teenager, one who’s just completed her Plus Two and has dreams of a bright future in her eyes.

For this 18-year-old, her body is her temple and she worships with a lot of faith and fervour. Europa is a female bodybuilder, a rare breed in  Bengal . “I am 18 now and when I started, I was the youngest bodybuilder in the country. I think I still am,” chuckles the 4' 11" girl, who won a silver in the lightweight category at the Asian Bodybuilding and Physique  Sports Championship 2017, which took place in South Korea in August. She treasures her victory. In 2015, she first appeared in competiti...
