Bodybuilders say sport often misunderstood

Whats the hardest part of her body to work?

Her brain.

Bodybuilder Diana Dumas said overcoming exhaustion and tired limbs takes will power some just dont have.

Diets, weights, and motivation become a part of everyday life, Dumas said.

Not everyone can do bodybuilding. Its a lot of work, she said Saturday at the 2012 FouadAbiadOpen a Windsor competition that judges bodybuilding, muscularity, body condition, stage presence and personality.

The 45-year-old Dumas hasnt competed in a competition since 1998 but said this year she felt like the contest was calling her.

For almost two months prior to the contest Dumas cut dairy, salt and sugar from her diet. She trains two hours a day, lifting weights for one and doing cardio for the other.

She eats half a cup of oatmeal in the morning, six ounces of chicken, half a cup of white rice, half a cup of broccoli, two protein shakes throughout the day and a tablespoon of peanut butter at night.

Dumas said the hardest part of her diet is eating flavourless food. To cope, she adds mustard. A lot of it.

I dont know how many jars of mustard I bought. Every time I went to the store people would stare at me carrying all this mustard.
