It's 50/50 in my gym as I have a home gym and it's just me and my husband. Our twins join us too sometimes boy/girl so still 50/50. Can't get the oldest in there that would make the females a minority but I don't think that will happen.0

Lol. We'll then mine is a mostly ladies' gym. I'm a regular and my daughter shows up once a week. Husband attends once in a great while.0 -
You look amazing! I love lifting but can only do so at work in our little gym. But have maxed out on the little weights they have there. Trying to save up for a bench, bar and some weights. Great job!!!0

Your body looks great, but I also wanted to say that you have a very beautiful face. I think you have a resemblance to Jurnee Smollett.0

The only weighted ab exercises I do are russian twists & side bends. Everything else I just use my own body weight if necessary.

I'm definitely not an expert. So I would recommend going to Bodybuilding.com they have lots of different lifting routines you can follow, along with videos on how to perform each exercise correctly. That's where I started out.

I actually at one point became scared of weights because I felt like I was getting bigger. But it was just muscle + extra fat. Now that I am leaning out, I am loving how I look.
