A FEMALE bodybuilder and model “doesn’t really care” for the comments her muscular legs earn her – including comparisons to footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.
Anne Lima, 34, from Brazil, has been working on her legs for 14 years, and will be representing Rio de Janeiro in the infamous Miss BumBum competition this year.

But despite her hard work building up her leg muscles, the comments she receives about them aren’t particularly complimentary.
She’s frequently told by strangers that her legs are like a footballer’s, while a date once told her that they reminded him of Ronaldo’s – a comment Anne was “completely uncomfortable” with.
“I don’t really care for the comments,” Anne told Jam Press.
“I get it all the time. I get it at the gym and even get stopped on the street.”
Anne hit the gym four days a week, for two hours at a time, working on her physique.
“The exercises I do are squats, deadlift and extensions,” she explained.
“These never fail.
“My legs are really natural, I’ve never had any kind of procedure, you can see the muscle cut.
“There is nothing that imitates muscle.”
And when it comes to how she sees herself, Anne prefers to think of her legs like a tree trunk.
“When I look in the mirror, I see a big and strong tree,” she smiled.
As well as achieving success on the bodybuilding circuit, Anne is also hoping to become the person with the most defined legs on Instagram – where she has been sharing workout videos.
