    I've been actively trying to get "bulky" for the last three years so I always have to lift a people's eyebrow at women who think lifting more than a 3-lb dumbbell is going to accidentally give them arms bigger than mine.

    I hear ya. My goal is to one day look like Christmas Abbott :love:

    I agree entirely! I have been lifting heavy (80kg deadlift) for six months and i love the power and strength is gives me. My muscles have toned nicely and I have gained 3 kg but looking better! Girlpower - literally!

    A big congratulations on your results!

    And to other women reading, notice her girls seem happier too. Didn't want to say perky cause that sounded creepy to say. But point is lifting does wonders to your body!

    not hating, but the title is reading sarcastic to me, I'm failing to see how she is or was bulky anywhere.

    It's meant as sarcasm. Chicks are still afraid to lift weights and they shouldn't be.

    I will be totally honest and say that I would have told you to go eat a burger in picture #1. (not really, I would never do that)
    Picture number 2 though- you look awesome!
