It is still stuck in my head.

I saw a young couple shopping with friends. The girl was about my height 5'8" and she may have been 150-160. pounds. Not fat but thick. She was cute and filled out in proper areas

Her guy was about 5'10" and about the same weight. He looked a bit thin next to her.

They were hugging real close when I almost bumped into them turning down the row.

I looked down on a lower shelf and as I did I noticed his feet were off the floor. This cute gal had him bear hugged tight and was holding him off the floor by 3 inches.

I didn't mean to but I connected with his eyes. He turned red real quick and said real quiet to her, "let me down." He squirmed just a bit. I heard her say as I walked on, "Kiss me first."

It was like she was getting a thrill from his squirming.

Anyway, I just thought that was something to share.

cool. The firsthand sightings or surprises like that are always great.

I guess I might have placed this in the wrong spot. I'm sorry if it is.

Something similar (Well, not really but a "sighting" thing) happened to me.
There was the time I worked at a Stop and Shop (local grocery chain) in Glastonbury, CT. A cute asian girl walks through my line, coat on (it was September/October, so it's varying between warm and chilly) with her items (a big, 30 pound bag of dogfood). I can't help but notice not only does she seem to have little trouble (other than the unwieldiness of the bag), she had a VERY muscular shape to her chest.

The next time I see her (she came through my line, almost every tuesday, like clockwork at 8PM or so…seems she had a crush!) she had her jacket off, and I can quite clearly see she was in amazing shape, definitely at least an amateur bodybuilder. We exchanged greetings and a smile (but I wasn't exactly sure how to say 'Hey I think muscles are hot' without coming off as creepy).
Someone complained that "she looks like a man" (Fat lady. SHOCKER!) as she's leaving. I shrug and say "I dunno, I think it looks nice." I see the other girl turn around and smile (more a "Hey someone appreciates my work!" smile than a flirtatious one).

Second separate occasion, an honest-to-god bodybuilder is at the front desk. She's wearing a dress that shows her (amazing) back, high heels, etc. I can SEE this woman is huge. And with her heels, easily 6 feet (I'm 5'10). She was with her boyfriend who I could care less about. ANOTHER fat lady says "how could anyone do that to themselves". This time I have to bite my tongue, or risk blurting out "Like you should talk, fatass."

Third (but not final!) was in Big Y, another local supermarket chain (but highly inferior…and S&S canned my ass so there's no company loyalty :P) It was only in passing, a girl right behind me (What the hell, do I like, give off a vibe that I won't recoil in horror?) as I'm getting some stuff for spaghetti for dinner. I can't exactly exchange pleasantries, but after realizing I was heading out the wrong door, I circle around and catch a glimpse of her flexing (well, reaching for her bag :P) her back, and it's definitely gorgeous and muscular. And she was cute, too!

Fourth (And final!) is fairly recent. Was in another Stop and Shop (Tip to all muscle fans: SUPERMARKETS!) one afternoon, when a woman cuts us off. Me and my friend roll our eyes, and my eyes instinctively head to the floor, where I see her calves. At first I put it out of my mind as just a fat chick with fat legs, but as I get another look at her at the checkout (again, directly behind me), I notice she…well, for lack of a better term, LOOKS like a bodybuilder. Her neck/chest is fairly defined, and her skin has that look that it's taken a bit TOO much fake tan spray in its' time (or at least recently).

Oh, not really final…but this one was far more "incidental".
I was at Ozzfest one year (well okay, like, the past FIVE years, and she was there 3 of those 5 from what I saw) there was a very muscular bodybuilder who was about 5'7-5'9" (I'm a terrible judge of height. She was DEFINITELY shorter than me) standing around. In fact she may have been the woman from the third encounter (Connecticut's not exactly a big place).
Anyway, I'm lookin' for my friends, so I'm trying to squeeze through the crowd. I place my hand on her (very muscular!) should and say "Excuse me." she smiles as I touch her shoulder and notices me noticing it (I was trying to get through! Honest!) and says "Hey I usually make guys pay to touch!" I laugh and say "Shit, where's my wallet" and whip out my *empty* wallet as part of the joke. We (me, her, and her friends, etc) all laugh as she courteously steps aside for me to look for my friends.

And (AGAIN SORRY GEEZ) I guess not final but not exactly fantastically muscular, my friend used to cut meat at a deli counter, and it made her right arm pretty buff and solid. I used to joke that she could knock someone out with it.

OKAY I SWEAR I'M DONE NOW.

Thanks for relating the personal muscle girl sightings. These are always good to hear. Makes me hopeful the muscle thing catches on with more women.

I have something to add. It involves a pro FBB and a chance meeting. I was at a the Arnolds Expo, (either 2003 or 2004), standing in the passageway connecting the Expo hall with the gymnastics expo. As I was watching my daughter do her routine, a woman came up behind me and asked in curiosity "what's going on here?". At first, I didn't turn to look at her and just replied "the gymnastics expo is in here". I took a quick look her way and just as quick, turned back away hoping my jaw wasn't on the ground  :P. I recognized her immediately!  😮 Raye Hollit! For some reason I didn't want her to know I knew who she was. (I realize it was TOTALLY STUPID)I played it cool, pretended I didn't recognize her. I couldn't even turn to look at her much for fear I would start babbling and lose my cool. But she was totally a wonderful person.  I told her I had daughters competing in the gymnastics and she told me her daughter was somewhat into gymnastics.  She asked who I was, if I was involved with the expo and I replied, (thinking how beautiful she is and how famous she is and thinking how normally someone like her wouldn’t pay any attention to someone like me), “No, just a nobody”.  Her response was totally unexpected and great. “Oh don’t say that! Everybody is somebody.”  She was very pleasant and really easy to talk to.  I never let on I knew who she was and regret that to this day.  I was too afraid if I turned to look at her my mind would go blank and I would just stare at her, looking so foolish  :P.  We chatted just a minute until she left. 

Just wanted to add her website link(kinda a thank you to her).

Well, I've had my share of close encounters with famous FBBers.

Around 2004, I was heading to Vegas on Spirit Airlines in Detroit and was waiting at the gate to board the plane.  I noticed that the woman tending the gate checking people in looked very familiar.  She looked like Sheila Burgess.  Her forearms looked corded with muscle but it wasn't until I saw her name tag as I was checked in that confirmed that her first name was Sheila.  🙂

I was in New Orleans around 1998 walking down Bourbon Street checking the jazz clubs, etc. when I noticed a muscular woman with two rather large men on each side of her.  I followed from the other side of the street and noticed that the woman was an off-season Annie Rivecchio.  She was huge and looked great.

Of course, there were all the times that I was in Vegas during the Olympia that I saw plenty of muscular women wandering around the Strip.

By contrast, the UK (and especially my area) seems dead as far as buff ladies is concerned.  I have seen the occasional cute bicep or nice calf (I recall a middle-aged female rambler – hiker for US readers – with her husband on holiday last year in the Cotswolds who was wearing cropped leggings showing-off some impressive calves, but oterwise, very little.

Same thing here as in UK. I've never seen a buff women not to mention any fbb's. I envy you guys there in the homeland of bodybuilding.
