In Baghdad, bodybuilding is a booming industry.

There has long been a special gym in honor of bodybuilding legend/California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Last year, a young Iraqi bodybuilder became a world champion.

Now, this unusual trend seems to be taking hold in Hamas-controlled Gaza.

This weekend, about 20 Palestinian bodybuilders took part in Gaza's "Bodybuilding Hero Contest."

While Hamas campaigns against women wearing jeans as "devilish dress," Gaza guys in skimpy Speedo's with spray-on tans and shiny lube took to the stage in Gaza City to strut their stuff.

Gaza has seen a rare influx of visitors in the last year as everyone from Mia Farrow to Alice Walker has come to see the damage caused by Israel's winter offensive.

Will it be too long before Arnold comes to give these guys some tips?
