in Fitness and Exercise
I was working at Powerplate last night and my co worker came in for a workout. One of my favourite exercises are bicep curls with 4 kg weights and tricep dips off the edge of the plate. She refused to do them on the basis that she would bulk up..I told it its virtually impossible for that to happen to a woman unless she is taking steroids but she is on a diet....would she listen to me? Hell no!

Crazy thing is that she wants arms like mine ( I do weights) but refuses to believe that's how I got them? :noway:

Just can't help some people :noway:

    Biggest myth out there! Muscle burns fat :) Tell your co worker I have a female friend who lost 180lbs. using Les Mills Pump (which is all weights, very little cardio)!!! Sorry women, you will not get bulky by lifting weights ;)

    Everyone of my friends here keeps warning me how if I use weights I will "bulk up" like the women in wwe... worse part is they're all pretty petite and toned without any workout...But hey am not so this is my way of toning up... and with this post of yours I know am right :).. At least I have someone with experience to show them! :D

    Some people are idiots!

    "I want arms like yours, but I don't want to do what you do for them, in case I bulk up!" WTF!?
