Here's an idea for an alternate history:
Louis Cyr (1863-1912), was and may be the strongest man who ever lived, and his recorded feats made him famous world wide.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_CyrWhat is interesting is that his wife was no slouch either in the muscle department and his daughter, Emiliana, seemed destined to follow in his footsetps and even participated in strength events with him during his tours in Canada and Britain. Unfortunately, after Louis Cyr's death, she was committed to an asylum under suspicious cicumstances by her husband and died there.
What if history had changed, and allowed Emiliana the chance to popularise female bodybuilding decades before our history?
Could be interesting...
Just an idea.
