I wish some of you ladies went to my gym..I am the ONLY woman doing weights this heavy...women look at me funny..and so do the men...like I have some super freak human power or something! hahaha
Sometimes..I wish I could turn green..just to freak everyone out.:blushing:
the gym I go to - I am for sure not the strongest woman there - it's always nice to have someone that is throwing up numbers like you or better than you
I would venture to say I am the weakest girl who is brave enough to venture to the weights side of my gym, but I haven't been at it for very long. I will admit to feeling proud to see a guy squating the same weight as me yesterday, but my form was way better! And he was with a personal trainer, what a waste of money if the guy wasn't going to teach him right!
difference between men and women..we research our moves and form..to make SURE its right...guys..sorry..not so much...0 -

I am doing 3x5 on all of those except dead lift which I am only doing 1x5. And it's kinda funny that my deadlift and squats are almost the same lol. It's because I've been doing squats a lot longer than I've been doing deadlifts So I'm sure over time those numbers will... disperse more.0 -
