"Things
do not change. We change." - Henry David Thoreau
I still get a big ol’ giggle when I consult with a female prospect
(of any age) and they exclaim with firm conviction that they are afraid to lift
weights because they don’t wanna get “big”. As if this de-conditioned female
literally had the kind of shear strength and power to lift hard enough and
heavy enough to cause such disrepair that her muscles would actually
hypertrophy (grow) and subsequently manifest a bigger, more muscular physique.
Please, let’s put this archaic, misgiving to rest. Ladies, you cannot do such a
thing no matter how fast & furious you manhandle those 8 pound dumbbells,
it just isn’t gonna happen. Not to mention the intricate dietary discipline and
the construction and consumption of the sort of diet that would have to be
employed to get “big” typically would never happen either, so relax.
However, in order to build the kind of beautiful body most women
wish to possess, you must work similarly to and employ very similar training
techniques that those who are “big” have used in pursuit of their goal. What
makes all the difference in the world is how you eat to support the goal. Eat
big, get big. Got it?
