I still have a lot of fat on me so all those little muscles I have been trying to build are just too shy or I just love them too much to show them to you. LOL

I have been known to flex from time to time.

jackiegumbert

oh yes! I feel like a BEAST! I throw around flexes all day!

Couple of flexed pics I pulled from my profile (none taken 'with mah swole on').





Unfortunately I will get in trouble if I post a pic of my hip to show my muscle definition there as people tend to report my pics, but here is one that should be ok that shows some definition - although it shows far less definition than usmcmp has.





I may have more muscle definition than a lot of people like - and that is fine - everyone is 100% entitled to their preferences, however, you do not start lifting weights and suddenly get muscular.

OK so how wrong is it that I just keep staring at these pics? Sarah was one of the first people I requested because her journey was a major inspiration, I also am proud to admit I manage not to creep her profile.....but these dang pictures...now I keep creeping my own thread :noway:

I love all the pics and responses, I am also very glad to know I am not alone with the obsessive flexing :drinker:

I love posing while I'm pumped. I usually do it in the studios in my gym directly after my workout. I'm far from fitness model material but it's my goal one day to compete, sooo.. Fake it 'til you make it;-)

You're actually very lean! I just have more muscle volume in my abs. That's about the only difference. You look amazing!

So I am well aware women getting bulky by lifting does not happen, but I wanted to see if any women who lift......Get a kick out of flexing, especially after a workout. I will not get bulky by lifting, but with the swelling from a workout; I enjoy making certain muscles flex and feeling like a bada$$. Example after squats, making my quad pop out to the side and looking like I could drop kick anyone.

I completely enjoy the feeling of looking thinner and not bulky but on command can now pop a bicep up, flex my back or make more lines in my legs than I even knew I had muscles. The butt sitting higher is a major plus too. Now I just have to get the tricep to play along.

I know some women worry about being bulky, this will NOT happen without testosterone and much more work than most are willing to do. I just wanted to see if any other women were as goofy as I am and like feeling like a bada$$ with their new found muscles.

Guys feel free to reply, I know many of you love playing the flexing game too

Well I did my 5x5's yesterday and afterword I felt like the f***ing terminator.

I hear you. I haven't been able to do much lifting through this pregnancy (Doctor said it was okay as long as I felt well enough, but I haven't felt well enough/had enough energy many days :sad:). But I can't wait until I can get back into the gym and start getting myself looking too hot for a mom of 5 :laugh:

I try to flex for one new person a day

I wish I knew how to do photos. :frown:

Just the avatars of postes alone on this thread are already amazing enough....

I find that there isint a mirror i pass with out at least taking a peek. Maybe not a full flex but i like to see something showing lol

Also, i just learned how to " bounce" my pecs like a guy does and so im always doing that LOL stupid i know but funny that my pecs have the muscle to do it.

I love to see the fruits ( muscles) of my hard work especially after a pump.

I still have a lot of body fat (A LOT), but I'm in the middle of NRWLFW, and am starting to build a lot of muscle under the fat (now if I could only get my eating in order...), ANYWAYS, I started to wear sleeveless tanks to the gym because I LOVE the way my shoulders look on the rows/presses, and I frequently flex my abs in the mirror. All it really does is make the belly fat go from droopy to not droopy, but it's still pretty fun for a fat person to see that.

USMC (maybe I got that wrong) but you make me drool in a purely heterosexual way! You are hotness defined!

She makes me drool in a purely homosexual way.
