I am annoyed with the anti-lady-muscle posts.

    I'd like to see one post about women lifting that doesn't distil down to 'I'd do her vs I wouldn't do her".


    *sigh* So sick of this idea that women can be based around doable or not and that's it- she has no purpose other than as a hot pocket for whoever wants her. As if the worst insult is to have someone decree them 'undoable'- and to impressionable young adults reading this- they believe it because it keeps getting pushed on them.

    I'm with ya! I'm proud of my muscles and after lifting for a few months I can proudly say I'm in the best shape of my life and I have muscles to prove it!!

    How could anybody not appreciate a girl with muscles? What, are we all supposed to be stick figures or something?

    If you dont lift about 22% of your total weight loss will be from lean muscle!! So lift and be thrilled with your results or keep being a cardio bunny and end up not being happy with how you look even after you reached or even surpassed your goal!! Dont end up looking like a jellyfish!!

    To each their own. Whatever makes the woman feel more confident in achieving what she wants...HoofukingRah!


    Holy crap the lower pic works out at my gym! Dayum, I gotta out lift her tonight. Woman scares me everytime I see her. I feel like she could bend me over and have her way with me.

    I just don't get why it's anyones business what other people look like. Mind your body and not others. This site it supposed to help people, not tell them that you don't like their body style.

    This thread was started BECAUSE of all the trolls bashing women who lift. Please...I know your heart is in the right place, but go complain to them. You'll NEVER see one of these ladies bashing someone thin, or fat, or anything else...without being provoked first.

    It's ok, even with as much steroids as she's clearly used, her little woman penis would probably only hurt a little bit.

    :laugh:

    Edit - And don't you DARE tell her I said that lol!

    Never ever wanted to lift a barbell.. Only wanted to do machines and dumbbells.

    Then my trainer got me started on barbell lifting and now I'm hooked... Got better looking, *kitten*, ab's and arms then I ever did before.

    Lift ladies.. and enjoy the results :)

    When I started to strength train then went back to more cardio, I sooo miss the weights and want to incorporate them more into my workout then cardio at times.

    I don't want to bother with the picture posting, but I made my profile public for a little while.

    Please don't be frightened by the MONSTER at the end of this book. I'm an ANIMAL.

    I think she stands and pees in the mens locker room too. I saw her doing up right rows with 100 lbs. and I was like I can do that so I'm safe today. 45lb plate stealing freak in the gym. lmao

    It just comes down to personal preference.

    Psst: Lets not bash the body builder lady either. She obviously works hard (and uses steroids) and likes how she looks so more power to her.

    I lift heavy **** and put it back down, repeatedly - and it makes me happy every time I add another 5lbs to the bar.
    On the other hand, I do not heart deadlifts, but give me backsquats, cleans and push presses almost anytime!

    I hate deadlifts. And now I can only do three body weight reps of deadlifts, but can do 1.3x body weight squats past parallel not atg... I feel like I'm imbalanced because people typically deadlift more than they squat!

    Cory Everson??

    You're not getting that body without professional, if not chemical help.

    Joyce on the other hand...much more realistic.

    Pick up a good strength training program...stronglifts, or even NRoL4W...NOW. Do minimal cardio on your off days (2x a week), and get your diet in check...and you'll be halfway there already.


    Hahahahaha, I said I DIDN'T want to go that far! And yes, I am definitely aware of the "assistance" required for a woman to get that big. Joyce was the only one I could think of for ladies fitness lifting, like I said, showing my age. I have looked at the stronglift and NWOL4W, damn, it's just a little intimidating for this old girl. I just might surprise you though!

    I can deadlift 165 but only squat 120. :frown:

    I so totally got into an argument like yesterday with my friend about weight training. She doesn't believe in weight training. She only runs. I made her do the turkey arm test. Let's just say it wasn't pretty. But i proved my point....lol

    This thread was started BECAUSE of all the trolls bashing women who lift. Please...I know your heart is in the right place, but go complain to them. You'll NEVER see one of these ladies bashing someone thin, or fat, or anything else...without being provoked first.

    Perhaps not bashing, but I've seen plenty of "why wouldn't you want to lift heavy" or "why would you want to be skinny fat" and similar messages over and over again (and the responses are never appreciated even though people are being honest about their preferences not to have a certain body type). That is also criticizing someone else's personal choice about how they want their body to look. It might be more subtle, but it's not really any less rude. Now, making a declarative statement like, "This is why I lift heavy..." with awesome pics after, THAT'S empowering. But the other way is just veiled criticism of others.

    ETA: and just saw a post about the "turkey arm test" and it "not being pretty" - yep, no bashing here. (Apologies to the turkey arm poster, as I agree, mine aren't pretty, either, lol, just making a point).

    No, but see we're not allowed to have a different opinion in a thread specifically about lady muscles. Or something...

    You can have different opinions - but don't be rude - there is a difference - I suggest you learn it

    *sigh* Yeh, she's doping and all, but do we have to call her names?

    I would like to draw your attention to the original post. I said I was annoyed and asked people to stop making posts that were against muscles on women. I never said you HAD to have muscles. Or that you were not attractive with out them. Or that muscles were better than no muscles. It was a simple request driven by annoyance. You of course do not have to obey my request.

    I agree, I was more teasing him than poking fun at her.

    Agree! :drinker:
    Just started a weight lifting program 3 weeks ago, and the results are already amazing! I kind of wonder why I didn't do that before!

    i dont understand why anyone(male or female) wouldnt want to have muscles, good cardio, good flexibility and agility.
