This is awesome, thanks for sharing.. I noticed a small mistake by the YouTube uploader. The special is listed as mid 80s, and it’s very late 80s. There’s a quick commercial at the beginning that shows the Greatest American Hero in his short-lived series, Top of the Hill, which dates this special from 1989. 
It’s surprising that a major network of that era, would film a special (largely) devoted to a niche sport like female bodybuilding. But good for them..

I’ve been trying to cut down on endless social media scrolling in the evenings, which often leaves me feeling more drained. In a thread about digital detox alternatives, I saw spinking come up. I gave it a look, skeptical, but the directness was appealing. I played a few hands of something simple, and the clear beginning and end of each round created a satisfying sense of closure that endless feeds never provide. It occupied that restless part of the evening in a more structured, and frankly, more finite way, which felt healthier.
