    I deadlift dang near 300 lbs.. and squat more than body weight.. but it's making me bulky and masculine. Clearly, by my profile pic.

    hahaha yeah.. especially the woman on here...but hey brah they know more then yocked dudes who have striations even in their but holes about getting lean and shredded

    NO YOU DIDN'T.

    I want to know how he knows about the 'yocked' dudes having striations in their 'but holes'.

    Ribbed condoms are misleading. Good on him for using protection, though.

    I lift = ) although I just started 2mo ago. I CF (please dont throw rocks at me) and every morning I wake up praying for deadlifts, hangcleans or back squats. I will never understand the runners and eliptical peeps. I loathe running!! = P All in all I'm working on learning more about lifting and practicing form and technique.

    i lift weights but as a woman for probably different purposes. small reps-high weights, 3 sets, Upper body only at this point. It helps a lot. Definition and calorie burn is an added bonus. Love it.

    Yeah, us woman tend to get awfully but hurt when you insult our intelligence and knowledge of lifting. I'd say it hurts even in my but hole striations, but sadly, I don't have any. :sad: :sad: :sad:

    I do cardio at least three days a week anywhere between 20 min. to 90 min. per session (though, usually it is 30-45 min), plus I do strength training at least twice per week (using The Total Gym, which I love). Admittedly, I haven't a clue what I'm doing. But I can tell you that I am absolutely getting the results that I want (others my want more bulk, some may want more or less definition, I don't know, and would not know what to advise were I asked). I am loving the way I look (but am still a work in progress, not yet settled) and feel.

    To those who actually know what they're doing, and considering that I am indeed getting MY desired results, I'd like to hear whether what I am doing at least sounds sensible/logical. I have no plan to reach some specific goal in this regard. I'm in it for the long haul, and plan to continue to be fit the rest of my days. What's your thoughts?

    If you are happy with your results, and especially as you do not have much weight to lose. then I would not change anything. If you want to increase strength you should do a more traditional progressive loading strength routine...but, if you are not worried about that...keep doing what is giving you the results you want.

    Thanks for your response. I will say that my strength has increased significantly, and I am maxed out in terms of weight setting on the Total Gym (though I could buy weights to add to it as needed, thus increasing weights). But, at least for now, the definition in my arms, legs, shoulders, back, *kitten*, makes me happy. Just maintaining this look, I'd be completely satisfied. So, I think (for now) I will continue this routine/schedule, and change it if I want to see some changes. Thanks again. I really do appreciate it. Just feel better knowing I'm not doing anything stupid, and just being lucky w/ these results. You know? :)

    Lift more, you'll have a striated but hole... And i never meant to insult any of those females who lift, i simply meant that woman usually tend to stick to doing a lot more cardio since lifting weights will make them bulky

    I think you meant to say, "...usually tend to stick to doing a lot more cardio BECAUSE THEY THINK lifting weights will make them bulky....WHICH IT WON'T...."

    Fixed it for you :)

    Edited to fix bolding.

    I lift....got a bench set up in my living room for deadlifts, squats and stuff. Doing my own routine of pyramid weights at the moment with alternate kettlebell circuit days. I'm going to step it up soon, currently researching which are the best routines to adopt for me to improve the muscle tone I've grown already :)

    I see my sense of sarcasm has sailed right past you, so me and my sad, woefully underdeveloped little but hole are going to pack our bags and leave. Sir, I bid you GOOD DAY.

    well, then I'm not shocked.
    eta: your screen name means nothing. I have "machine" in my name, but I promise, I'm not an android, cyborg, or have any mechanical parts...unless you count the plate in my ankle.

    I foresee a point where the Total Gym will not give you enough of a strength workout - having to do 25-35 reps of anything to get to fatigue is probably not in your best interest. You may at that point want to consider a program that challenges you more. Glad it works for you though!
