I want long lean muscles. I've heard yoga, barre, and various stretches are the trick to lengthening my muscles, but I'm not sure on the specifecs, but it seems legit enough. Up til now I've been lifting and that's cool, but I'm still kinda short you know? Has anyone gotten a long lean dancer like body this way?

    the only way that I know is to get four horses; you then tie a rope from each limb to each horse; and you then have them all run off at the same time…boom, long lean muscle….note, that you may suffer slight dislocation of joints from bone..but this is only temporary..

    Thank you. I've heard amazing things about mini trampolines, actually. I'll be sure to try it.

    I've also heard the stair stepper will give me the kind of body all women want. Confirm/deny?

    Try staying upside down as long as possible while facing North. Gravity and the earth's axis will help lengthen the bones and muscles over time.

    Muscle belly shape is genetic. You can stretch them using any number of techniques, sure, but the muscle belly will only change a miniscule amount. I've never seen a single person change their muscle shape noticeably over any number of years.

    But maybe this was a troll post. /shrug

    Trampolines do make women bulky. I would steer-clear.

    Well we wouldn't want that. It's basically the opposite of lean and long. Darn.

    Do you know anyone who's tried? Because all the Barre websites promise to change my body. That is literally the phrasing "Change your Body."

    Duh, this is why people are taller now.

    Don't assume that someone is being rude, missy. I mean, aren't we all here for the same thing? :flowerforyou:

    ETA: I don't know how credible this is, but it sounded legit.

    What do donuts have to do with anything? Everyone knows it's exercise, not what you eat, that makes all the difference! That's why people are all 'I did Zumba and lost a billion pounds' or 'I need 30 day shred success stories.' But not 'I need moderate deficit success stories'.

    Think about it
