    I think it depends what you are trying to achieve. As Jennifer says, you wont look like a body builder by accident so don't worry about looking 'manly'.

    I love to lift heavy. I like the feeling of strength it gives me. I don't want to look thin, I want to look 'fit'. Having muscles is a great way to burn calories and increase your metabolism.

    I personally couldn't lift 5 days a week. It takes me more than a day to recover so I cant do consecutive days. I am in the process of dealing with the reason I get DOMS so badly with nutrition and supplements. I mix heavy lifting with circuits and boxercise. I'm also running. Running is not my usual exercise of choice but I have a charity race in July. I am discovering it's a great calorie burner but I'm not sure if it fits with my strength training.

    If you like to lift but you're worried that you are making too much of a gain, I wonder if you'd enjoy something with a bit of weight but also cardio, like circuits or crossfit? Might be worth looking into getting a bit of variety?

    Agreed with this lady! The only time I gained any weight is when I was purposely trying (i.e. eating more calories). In fact doing Crossfit and Orange Theory has made me lost weight (not purposely) and I lift a good amount of weights.

    I can fluctuate anywhere from 3-5 weeks on a given week due to water retention, etc.. It doesn't last and it definitely doesn't come from lifting weights. ;)

    Though I've hit a bit of a weight loss plateau these past 6 months, I'm trying to figure out ways of incorporating more cardio into my life and maybe changing things up... definitely need to work on the diet part of my weight loss. Ugh. But I don't think I could ever give up lifting, addicted... thoroughly addicted. :)
    Do what you want, do what makes you feel good and the rest will fall into place. It feels good to be strong, I'll take that any day.


    In 8-9 months? My guess would be leg press - but even that would be 665 lb total (assuming a 125 lb sled). I'm not believing this one either. In fact, I'm less inclined to believe this than the other.

    Someone asked if she meant 1 rep and 6 reps, which makes more sense.

    Do you mean you went from 1 rep with 45lbs each side to 6 reps at 45lbs each side?





    Oh, that makes more sense. But I doubt that's smoking any guys away.

    eh. wasn't an accusation- that makes it sound like I thought it was wrong- when I just don't. I have no issues with people on gear. It's an openly free subject for jokes to me. Sorry you don't feel the same. NMP.

    Semantics.

    Also...assumptions.

    I was explaining why I did not get the 'sarcasm;. Also...snark...nice!.

    I shouldn't post precoffee is what it is LOL.

    Yeah, coffee helps in engaging the brain for me too, so probably a good rule to have.

    I've gotten yelled at for being mean when posting before coffee.

    I think someone told me I was the most condescending person on this forum- because of posts made pre-coffee.

    My filter is just- really really low at that point.
    I shouldn't be allowed to speak to anyone before 930- even 9 is pushing it.

    says comment.
    deletes comment.

    This is still confusing even if she meant reps and not plates. Why would you start off so heavy and only able to do one rep (and assuming 1 set).

    This thread turned out pleasantly funny. Especially the part where some women thought they could lift weights. Especially the ancient legend of Sara the Juiced Powerlifter. Thank you all.

    My understanding is it's similar to the old strike system. Except now it includes public shaming.

    My filter is just- really really low at that point.
    I shouldn't be allowed to speak to anyone before 930- even 9 is pushing it.

    perhaps less talking in the early AM and more posting selfies in threads?

    when did they let you out bro? Are you on parole???? :)

    I am still confused with the whole posting while behind bars thing.

    I guess it is a form of social stigma kind of like the old "scarlet letter" from back in the day ...????

    Thou hast been declared naughty in the eyes of the lord!
    Thou shalt be marked with the bars of derp!

    eh. wasn't an accusation- that makes it sound like I thought it was wrong- when I just don't. I have no issues with people on gear. It's an openly free subject for jokes to me. Sorry you don't feel the same. NMP.

    Semantics.

    Also...assumptions.

    I was explaining why I did not get the 'sarcasm;. Also...snark...nice!.

    I shouldn't post precoffee is what it is LOL.

    Yeah, coffee helps in engaging the brain for me too, so probably a good rule to have.

    I've gotten yelled at for being mean when posting before coffee.

    I think someone told me I was the most condescending person on this forum- because of posts made pre-coffee.

    My understanding is it's similar to the old strike system. Except now it includes public shaming.

    'cuz once you're out of high school, you just don't get your proper daily dosage of public shaming.
