    Re spot loss. Its difficult to prove that spot reduction doesn't work - its like saying prove green fairies don't live at the bottom of your garden :-) Clever science type people guess that you can't based on the way they understand the way the body works though.

    Spot reduction absolutely does happen. It's just doesn't usually happen to the spots you are trying to reduce.

    Ummm...so although I enjoy the snarky comments, in this case they aren't helpful in solving your problem. My husband doesn't want me to lift, and I have lifted for LOONNNGGGG before I met him. We do not workout together unless we are cross training, and he actually comes to me for advice on weightlifting. For a long time I was stronger than he (and then we got pregnant, and ironically I drop muscle as fast as I put it on).

    Soooo anyway, totally see where you are coming from OP. I also suggest starting with Strong lifts if you have a gym membership. Start with light weights and perfect your form. There is a forum here on MFP for SL and the ladies are uber helpful.

    Still fighting the urge to be snarky...but I think I hear your boyfriend calling, he wants you to make his sandwich...:wink:

    Maybe you need to pull up your panties and figure things out for yourself instead of relying on others? Just an idea.

    you should probably ask some other random buff dude at the gym. I think your BF may be more inclined to help you then.

    Sounds like you have a girlfriend.

    Happy lifting!

    Thiiiiiiiiis. Only if he were actually a woman he might know what it's like for you trying to get toned.

    ...that doesn't know anything about lifting.

    So he goes to the gym once a month, thinks you can do some crunches and get a flat stomach, and sounds like a total douche bag, and you still want to take advice on proper form from him??? :huh:

    It is called passion quitting, not rage quitting. C'mon now, there is a difference! Passion quitting is when you rant about someone you're dating, everyone tells you to break up with said person, and then you come back screaming about how much you love said person.

    So you're broke and you're a whiny little ... And your bf puts up with you anyway. Because you're curvy and look hot?

    Ok just so I have the background straight.

    Google / Youtube some videos on weightlifting is the best advice he could have given you. Why don't you?

    He's right in that you might get bulkier in certain places if you were to lift. He's also right in that your boobs may shrink.

    Ya he's wrong about the crunches but don't blame him for recommending the one exercise 99% of the people in the gym do every time they go.

    maybe he's scared cuz you'll be kicking his *kitten* soon. Sounds to be like he's intimidated by strength in a woman.
    Relationships work when both people are on the same page. Get him on yours!
