So, after last night at the gym being asked "Aren't those weights too heavy for you? Bc that's the weight Im using" It's quite obvious I shouldn't be lifting nor should any women.
Apparently, lifting weights makes some men feel insecure, and therefor I shouldn't do it. So I ask you, what are some other reasons women shouldn't lift?

    Actually when I went to put my dumbells down, after doing 4 sets with the "too heavy weights" on the rack the idiot had a curl bar spread across so I sarcastically said, uh could you pick that up because THAT is too heavy for me.....he got the hint

    You should have told him that your balls are even heavier and asked if he wanted to see.

    That woulda be HILARIOUS!!

    Haha, good! That happened to me once. Two guys asked if I needed help deloading some 25lbs from a squat rack, because "that's probably too heavy for you." I said, "Sure, and could you put the 45's on there also?" I did my sets. I added 10 extra pounds. Don't make assumptions, especially regarding the strength of women.

    You're off to a grand restart pretty girl, lol.

    I love when I see women lifting heavy. Not only does it give me a 'hell yeah!' moment...but it makes me push harder for the rest of the week...cause I'll be damned if I'll let her catch up =p.

    :blushing:

    Because it takes time away from Jazzercise class



    I figure guys that make comments like that think women should be doing jazzercise....I'm not sure that's even a real thing anymore

    Good! I think that comment is what made me lift so heavy tonight too! I was steamed up when I walked in and decided that I was NOT gonna let some guy decide what I could and couldn't do

    there is NO reason a woman shouldn't lift weight...read New Rules of lifting for Women...men that say things like that are ridiculous, undereducated and morons who probably believe women still just belong in the kitchen and stuff like that.
    our muscles are the same as theirs only ours contain more endurance fibers whereas theirs contain more strength fibers which means you've worked wayyy harder to lift that amount :D

    love your comment...no one is going to look like this if they aren't going for this..even then it's next to impossible unless your job is the gym and images like these are why women either lift those pastel colored dumbbells like you said or don't lift at all, it's ridiculous,
