    Even if a woman obtains a "bulky body" as a result-so what? I'd rather be bulky because of muscle than not.

    Kettlebells are an awesome tool, and I'll be blogging about them soon! Thanks for the welcome.

    I, too, would rather be bulky from muscle, but the problem a lot of women have with muscle is that they feel it makes them look manly (which it doesn't). If they look manly, they feel they would not be attractive to men, which for some people, is one of the most important things in their lives...

    great post again! i used to be quite heavy and got "slim" by lifting light weights. i had a student trainer at wiu encourage the heavier weights and i definitely see the difference! don't be afraid of upping the ante! i am not manly and i love the fact that i can lift my groceries with ease or tackle otherwise showstopping tasks w/o assistance.

    Thanks TG. You sound like my clients after about a month working with me. People lose so much weight from weight training with heavy weight and leaving the pink dumbbells alone.

    Great coverage on this - we need to hear more about how women are just as capable of weightlifting and can build muscle fast too. Thank you!
