    I always wonder how people can say (1) lifting won't make you bulky, and (2) squats will give you an a** without realizing those two statements contradict themselves. Lifting does build muscle. That's the point. You won't look like Arnold of course, but you can build mass. Lighter weights higher reps actually builds mass faster (8-12 reps at 50-70% ORM) than heavy weights lower reps (3-8 reps in the above 80% ORM range).

    30 lb squat wont' do much but a 30 lb OHP at 10 reps can.
