    Interesting, but I don't feel that I've come away with any solid advice from the article.

    Okay, the information is very good. However, I got a lot of good laughs looking at all the photoshopped photos.

    I'm not sure if anyone has already shared this in the forums. It answers a lot of questions that I see come up a lot in the forums. It's a very good article for people that have this goal and for others to consider when giving advice. The article is by Bret Contreras. This thread will go much better if people take the time to read the article before replying (unless just bumping to read later) because I'm not summarizing it. Also, I did not write this article (don't shoot the messenger, please and thank you).

    I didn't read the article but I think it's totally inappropriate that you are unwilling to summarize this article and are trying to force me to go to a DIFFERENT website and actually READ.

    We're all here for the same thing...and that thing does not include going to a different site or reading.

    From the article. This is awesome...

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    My primary advice to ladies seeking the “slender model look,” however, is the following:

    Wait until you start getting “bulky” or “overly muscular” until you decide to switch up your training.

    Start off training just like other fit women. Wait til you get too bulky to admonish heavy strength training. Many women never bulk up or develop bulging muscles. This is why the typical strength training advice – to focus on progressive overload on a handful of primary movement patterns – works for a good percentage of women.

    Moreover, any muscle that a women packs on will elevate their metabolic rate and help them lose bodyfat. So the training itself and the adaptations the training imposes will help women reduce their bodyfat levels and improve body composition.

    ___________________________________________________________________________

    I loved this part as well and found it to be good advice. Heavy lifting is worth a try and it's not forever- if you don't like the results, it's not like it's a lifetime heroin addiction.
