I've a new role model!! She's Swedish and she arm wrestles. Heidi Andersson comes from a long line or arm .... of arm wrestlers, her mother, father, father's father and so on were the toughest cookies in the arm game throughout the Swedish village of Solitude.
I was tickled by an article on this lady who apparently tours the world lecturing on the sport of arm wrestling as she doesn't make money actually wrestling. I was intrigued as I have been known to challenge men to a wrestle.. they politely refused, either they were too scared of losing or they didn't want to wrestle with a woman! Whatever... Hail Heidi Andersson!!!
Just wondering now, if you think I must be a bit butch, well I'm as much a lady as the next.... ;-)

That does sound interesting. I love to arm wrestle. It took me 20 years before I was finally able to beat my dad.
I have yet to tackle my dad, think he'd win and I'd hope so to, he's bigger than me ;-)
I remember how he used to use a strange springy contraption to improve his arm muscles back in the late 70's early 80's! I was always scared it would fling off in my face.
Ready when you are Wislon!
