Caitlin Clark fans gush over WNBA star’s bulked-up physique
New Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White has taken notice of Caitlin Clark’s dedication to improving her game this offseason. The hard work that Clark has been putting in at the weight room is starting to pay off, and fans are eagerly anticipating what she will bring to the table in her second year with the Fever.
During the women’s basketball Big Ten Tournament, where Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes were competing, photos of the guard caught the attention of many. In one particular picture, Clark was seen flexing after making a big play on the court, showcasing her visibly bulked-up physique. The photographer at the game, Bri Lewerke, captured the moment and captioned the photo with, “Well someone’s been in the weight room.”
Despite the Hawkeyes suffering a tough loss to Ohio State in the quarterfinals of the tournament, Clark’s animated gestures on the sidelines did not go unnoticed. Commentators and fans alike were quick to comment on her improved strength and physicality, with many expressing excitement for what she will bring to the court in the upcoming WNBA season.
Stephanie White, the Fever’s head coach, has been vocal about Clark’s impact on the league and her dedication to her craft. White compared Clark to Taylor Swift in terms of the attention she has garnered and how she handles the spotlight while remaining focused on her game. Clark’s decision to focus on building muscle in the offseason was a strategic move to improve her game after feeling overpowered during her rookie year.
Clark’s commitment to hitting the weight room hard was evident during the 2024 Paris Olympics break in the W season last year. She acknowledged the importance of strength and physicality in her game, emphasizing her efforts to improve in those areas. With the new WNBA season set to begin in mid-May, Clark will have the opportunity to showcase her growth and development as she faces off against top talent in the league.
The Fever have also bolstered their roster with key additions such as Natasha Howard, DeWanna Bonner, Sophie Cunningham, and Brianna Turner, to complement their already talented lineup. With Clark leading the charge, the Fever are poised to make a statement in the upcoming season and compete at the highest level.
As fans eagerly await the start of the new WNBA season, all eyes will be on Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever as they look to build on the momentum from last year and make a splash in the league. With Clark’s dedication to improving her game and the team’s solid roster additions, the Fever are primed for an exciting and successful season ahead.
