Fitness Fail

Assorted ramblings on training, nutrition, social issues surrounding these areas and a generous side of irrelevancy

Women and not lifting heavy, when will the myths FINALLY die?

OK, this one is nothing terribly new, but some of the places I’m still bumping into it are driving my crazy. Where does this nonsense where women are afraid they’ll look like a female contest bodybuilder come from? Seriously. I’m tired of it.

I’m increasingly seeing fitness blogs and articles around the internet extolling the virtues of women lifting. This is good, really good. I’m really glad to see this step in the right direction. But all too often those same pieces feature pictures of some curl curling ten pounds. So, just this once, I’m going to stop being critical and try to produce something helpful.
