I'm looking for some friends that are as interested in weight lifting as I am.. I'm not looking for people who "workout" i'm looking for woman who are seriously into weight "training". The type that goes to the gym 5 or 6 days a week and main focus is on muscle gains not necessarily weight loss. I just feel it would be nice to have more woman on my friends list that I can get advice form or learn from as well as share my own advice.

    There are a couple of females doing StrongLifts 5x5. There is a forum group here for it.

    Hi,

    I'm into weight lifting, been training for just over a year solidly. Strength is my main focus, although I'm trying to gain more muscle at the moment to help that, eating at a surplus and seeing how that goes for me :D I train at the gym around 3x a week at the moment, do P90x at home on most of the other days.
    Hope to compete in PL competitions sometime in the future so working towards that.

    Heidi

    I do Crossfit 3-4 times a week and additional strength training another 2. That's all I do. You can add me!

    Jamie Eason...Now she is something else.

    Another to look at(not a big namer like Eason is a body builders that goes by the name "Built"

    Look around she has a nice workout setup that is all about weights.

    I'm already your 'friend' but I as you know I'm so into lifting - am on stage 4 of NROLFW.

    A few months ago I changed my focus from 'weight' loss to fat and inch loss, much better :-)

    Count me in. I used to be in really great shape and was at the gym about five times a week. Now I am keen on getting back to where I was.
