Girls look like men when lifting weights

in #crossfit8 years ago

Many times we hear that crossfit is not for women, because soon they will look like men.
Couldn't be farther from the truth. When lifting weights we train muscles and not necessary built huge volume.

When we are talking about weight lifiting everyone think about bodybuilding and those bulky women.
They eat, train and use supplements specifically so they can look like that. This is their goal.

Here's the truth.

When you pick up heavy things, your muscles get STRONGER (but not necessarily bigger). If you pump yourself full of testosterone and eat way more calories than you are burning every day, you will get bigger.

If you pick up heavy things, and eat a caloric deficit (and eat the right kinds of food – actual healthy foods), your muscles will get stronger and denser; you will burn the fat on top of your muscle, and you will get that “toned” look that you’re after.

Ha! Women are so wrong about this. They worry if they start lifting weights they'll soon look like Hulk. If only it were so easy! I'm a man, been training for years, and I still don't look anything like a Hulk!

Just one more excuse why not to train for them.
Weight just gives you a shape of muscel and increases it's power. To become big as a Hulk it's difficult for men. For girls even harder.....
With proper diet they will look just extremely sexy:)

haha i wish i had that body :( followed though ;)

Just have 2 weight trainigs + 1 cardio training. And you are half way trough;)
