It’s hard to believe UFC strawweight Tecia Torres ever struggled with body image but as a child she said she was bullied and teased for her muscular build. “The Tiny Tornado” has been an athlete since she was very young and has the physique to show for it. Tecia is happy that strong women are now being seen as beautiful and she prides herself on being P.E.D-free and living a straight-edge healthy lifestyle. Tecia recently took to Instagram to tell her story.
“I am grateful to live in a generation where strong is being seen as beautiful and little girls are growing up knowing their bodies were made beautifully no matter what shape, size, or color it is. It took me a long time to love my body image.”
