    My husband thinks women with no muscular definition look flabby--even if they are thin. I carry quite a bit of lean mass, and he doesn't seem to mind my goal of gaining more. I will say that I agree with the comment that whatever looks and feels good to you is right for you...:drinker:
    I personally want muscle to lose, so as I get older I have less issues with mobility and frailty.

    I think natural muscles is nice. What's really gross is steroid muscles though, absolutely disgusting to me, just so unnatural looking.

    I definitely prefer muscles. Visible muscle definition is a mark of dedication, it's not easy to do but it's worth it!

    Last time I checked, about 1mo ago, my fat% was 26%. Fat mass appx 39lb's, lean mass of 110lb's, Total weight of 149lb's. Lost 5lb's since then, and I'm sure some inches. 2" from my abdomen, that I know of. Still have some weight to lose. Goal is 130lb's, and height 5' 3.5" I'm getting there! :happy: :wink:

    Yes! Also, the reason most people's metabolism slows, is because of muscle loss. Muscle burns cal's. :happy: :wink:

    It really helps as you get older, less sag and a better metabolism. I'm 5'1" and 60 yrs old and love my muscles!

    I would refer to what you yourself wrote on your profile page :)

    "The reason? More muscle, higher metabolism. Ladies, don't be afraid of weights!!! It will not bulk you up, unless you're really doing killer weights, and that is what you're going for. Muscle will REPLACE the fat."

    Do whatever you want, its your body and by the way you look great!!

    Muscles are like wearing black. Makes you look slimmer, and always in style.

    I for one like it for a number of reasons. Opening bottles, picking up a child. Planting a garden. Carrying in supplies to remodel my bathroom. Saving thousands doing my own garage and addition. I was hubbies labor. And he thinks I am sexy. :) Only person who was ever negative was a very flabby lazy gal. Lol, her opinion did not count!
