I when I go to the gym, I'm working for MY goals. I'm glad you're at the gym too, don't get me wrong; but you have a different set of goals, so you're working to meet those... don't try to rise (or sink) to my level! Stay at your own!!
Are you advocating for segregation? What, I can't share your goals?
Is it because I'm a woman?
Huh?
HUH???
^ sarc... Never mind.
Well, we could go back to Aristotelian theory and have everyone train together... but naked. Just sayyyyin

no, woman train after men ..that is the natural hierarchy of things and is based on genetics.
Not in the South.
Because we're in Italy. Now if we were in Germany...
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.

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 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 ...

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.

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.
From page 5 just for your reference.
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.zakmccartney79 wrote: »Danielle721007 wrote: »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.

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.0

You should just go for it. It's a great song, people love it, and it hardly has any words to follow (and no singy-speaky sections at all - good to avoid that, as I failed to do with Bowie's Young Americans that one time). You would probably have to dance a lot to get through the parts with no words to keep people engaged, though.0
