DEPUTY principal Lisa Cutter really flexes some muscle. It is not that she's a playground dictator, the shapely Sunshine Coast educator sets the tone as the country's best female bodybuilder.
Ms Cutter, 41, has just returned from Melbourne where she won the open women's bodybuilding title at the 2013 INBA Australian Natural Physique Championships.
This was reward for unwavering persistence, sacrifice and dedication after finishing runner-up for the past two years.
Ms Cutter emerged as the ultimate package and has received a huge response from students at Caloundra's Meridan State College.
"The younger students are always thrilled to hear my results, while the older boys sometimes yell out: 'Give us a flex, Miss!' '' she said.
The inspirational mother of three took up bodybuilding a few years ago to push herself and strive for new goals.
"I also think it's good for the kids to see the benefits of goal-setting and hard work," she said.
