I lift things up and put them down!0 -
throughly enjoyed this article. personally struggling with staying at a calorie deficit or just lifting and doing some cardio while eating 1800 to 2000 calories per day. I am still "technically" about 9-10 pounds overweight for my height, but I am relatively muscular so I might be at the proper weight for my body....0

Excellent article!!!
I wish I could have shown this to the PT from hell at my Planet Fitness that told me yesterday I'm too overweight to be lifting free weights, I should be doing crunches and other odd things on a swiss ball in the 2x3 foot space of the gym not dedicated to the cardio-a-haulics. She didn't even want me walking through the "boys department" to get the 10 lb barbie bells she wanted me to use in place of a barbell for deadlifts. *sigh*0 -

Waa? That chick needs to be throat punched! Barbie dumbbells are for Barbies....she is doing what most PT's do, ensuring that she has you as a client ($$$) for a long time. If you just do cardio and crunches you are not going to truly change the shape of your body....it's called skinny fat. I wish I would have listened to my hubby (who is also a PT) when he told me to lift heavy....I was always afraid of being "bulky"....so glad I stopped drinking that Kool-Aid! Weight training is where it’s at IMO! I do cardio as well but am definitely not segregated to the girls side of the gym. I can’t wait until I can lift like the boys do!0 -
This was a fantastic article. I am trying to get the courage to even go to my gym, this helped a little.0
