    I just want to know if it's finally been decided whether women should train before men like the title suggests.

    no, woman train after men ..that is the natural hierarchy of things and is based on genetics.

    This thread is a huge trainwreck. Why do 70% of threads here become "battle of the sexes"?

    Each individual should train in a way that promotes their personal goals and is compatible with their individual capabilities. Nothing more, nothing less.

    because some people on here choose to take things way too seriously, and have no clue how to differentiate sarcasm and joking, from seriousness.

    and it appears that some people expect that someone will never misspeak and when they do they should be tarred and feathered, and then quartered...

    I've actually been very graciously ignoring your attempts to bait me with your hilarious jokes, if you notice.

    (See *that * is sarcasm there, instanced in the use of the words "hilarious" and "jokes")

    so you are ignoring me by responding to me? Interesting...

    I did not refer to you by name, unless of course you think that "some people" refers to you ...or am I really in your head that much?

    I said I ignored your hilarious jokey baiting posts.

    You know that I know what you were doing. We've been bound together for all time by that other thread. Certainly for as long as we count here. It's kind of sweet if you think about it

    Wait, is this a thing ("We've been bound together for all time by that other thread.”)? Crap, that’s scarier than common-law marriage.

    All I know is if I have to do that thing you’re doing in your profile picture, yes, I have to train differently than you do. And we’re both men.

    Are you advocating for segregation? What, I can't share your goals?

    Is it because I'm a woman?

    You mean stand before man working out and train kinda "before" or form a single line and be 1st in line before man to train kinda "before"

    Now I'm confused. Can I have the answer by end of day today please? Tomorrow I have my bicep curl day. I would like to plan accordingly.

    I picked up a gallon of milk- but like a goblet squat- because genetically that's how I have to pick things up. 3:1 and all.

    I typed out a full thing... despite the wine I’ve had over the past 90 minutes, I was raised well enough to know I should delete all that crap...

    I meant Southeastern United States, where it is ladies first. Plus, who wants a lady watching them unload all the weight... crap, did it again.

    Hello All, so I am a huge YouTube junkie and I just watched a video from Sixpackshortcuts and Andrea Albright (both who are awesome!) which talked about how women should specifically strength train the lower half of their body ... glutes, hamstrings, quads and calves more so than upper body. The concept is building these muscles will eliminate fat from all over the body. Which I LOVE to lift weights and I am going to give this a try ... I just wanted to see what everyone thought about this ?

    Their suggestion for a workout plan was like this:

    Day 1 - Glutes
    Day 2 - Hamstrings / Core
    Day 3 - Upper Body (all muscles)
    Day 4 - Quads / Core
    Day 5 - Glutes

    Now, they structured this to give women a fit toned sleek look with curves... so what do you all think ?

    Reminder: Women, you won't get bulky lifting weights unless you take steroids and that's your goal. We simply don't create enough Testosterone to enhance our muscles the size of men's unless you take some type of muscle enhancer ...

    Just though I'd clear that up :)

    I workout a lot and I feel tht this is a good concept because women are not men. There body structure is totally different from men. Genetically they are different. Women should focus on the lower half more because that is where most of the weight is. And they won't be built like a tank. For most morons who said that. Also I believe that people should work out any way they want. If people don't like what someone else says just don't comment. All you trolls out there who would bring another person down just for asking a question should really think why they are doing that. Most of you people probably don't even workout, you just do cardio all day thinking that that is the key. But like arnold said" don't listen to the naysayers". Danielle you got my vote. Keep up the good work and don't let any of these *kitten* tell you otherwise.

    so you are saying a training program that is 3:1 legs over upper body is superior????????

    so when someone has arms like a twig and a rear like Ice T's girlfriend Coco or whatever her name is, you think that is a good look?

    No, but I'm saying when you wanna train te way you want that it is ok. You can't nicely put comments on here without being an *kitten*.

    I am not the one swearing, you are...

    so you agree that it is an inferior training program, but its OK for woman, because they are woman???

    I think the point is we're genetically inferior.
    I believe you mean "physically" inferior. There are lots and lots of females out there who have better genetics than some males.

    Physically inferior at what? Mansplaining to women what they really meant?

    For the record, greater explosive strength =/= physical superiority. Also for the record, being weaker than me doesn't make anyone less of a man. Get it together.

    Hate to tell you that if a fraternal twin girl and boy were tested, they would "genetically" be the similar. Physical difference between genders is what you were looking for here.

    That doesn't excuse your initial statement in any way. Seriously, moderate yourself.

    All he did was delete the word genetically and replace it with the word physically, he did so to prove a point that that one word was incorrect (because it is) not because he was trying to say that women are inferior to men. Seriously people need to RE_LAX!

    *Or* women drag their husbands to the gym with them and train simultaneously. Seriously, if I don't go, he doesn't go. Which is kind of silly; my stupid allergy headache shouldn't keep him out of the gym. I tried to tell him that. He needed to "keep me company" though. We ended up on the couch with beers. Well, today is another day, and hopefully not another pollen-based headache.

    Reminder: Women, you won't get bulky lifting weights unless you take steroids and that's your goal. We simply don't create enough Testosterone to enhance our muscles the size of men's unless you take some type of muscle enhancer ...

    Just though I'd clear that up :)

    I workout a lot and I feel tht this is a good concept because women are not men. There body structure is totally different from men. Genetically they are different. Women should focus on the lower half more because that is where most of the weight is. And they won't be built like a tank. For most morons who said that. Also I believe that people should work out any way they want. If people don't like what someone else says just don't comment. All you trolls out there who would bring another person down just for asking a question should really think why they are doing that. Most of you people probably don't even workout, you just do cardio all day thinking that that is the key. But like arnold said" don't listen to the naysayers". Danielle you got my vote. Keep up the good work and don't let any of these *kitten* tell you otherwise.

    so you are saying a training program that is 3:1 legs over upper body is superior????????

    so when someone has arms like a twig and a rear like Ice T's girlfriend Coco or whatever her name is, you think that is a good look?

    No, but I'm saying when you wanna train te way you want that it is ok. You can't nicely put comments on here without being an *kitten*.

    I am not the one swearing, you are...

    so you agree that it is an inferior training program, but its OK for woman, because they are woman???

    I think the point is we're genetically inferior.
    I believe you mean "physically" inferior. There are lots and lots of females out there who have better genetics than some males.

    Physically inferior at what? Mansplaining to women what they really meant?

    For the record, greater explosive strength =/= physical superiority. Also for the record, being weaker than me doesn't make anyone less of a man. Get it together.

    Hello All, so I am a huge YouTube junkie and I just watched a video from Sixpackshortcuts and Andrea Albright (both who are awesome!) which talked about how women should specifically strength train the lower half of their body ... glutes, hamstrings, quads and calves more so than upper body. The concept is building these muscles will eliminate fat from all over the body. Which I LOVE to lift weights and I am going to give this a try ... I just wanted to see what everyone thought about this ?

    Their suggestion for a workout plan was like this:

    Day 1 - Glutes
    Day 2 - Hamstrings / Core
    Day 3 - Upper Body (all muscles)
    Day 4 - Quads / Core
    Day 5 - Glutes

    Now, they structured this to give women a fit toned sleek look with curves... so what do you all think ?

    Hate to tell you that if a fraternal twin girl and boy were tested, they would "genetically" be the similar. Physical difference between genders is what you were looking for here.

    Probably should heed your own advice.

    That doesn't excuse your initial statement in any way. Seriously, moderate yourself.

    All he did was delete the word genetically and replace it with the word physically, he did so to prove a point that that one word was incorrect (because it is) not because he was trying to say that women are inferior to men. Seriously people need to RE_LAX!

    Well, since you said so.

    I wish I had the guts to karaoke that song. Always either not drunk enough or too drunk. There never seems to be a just drunk enough to do that song.
