LOL Tik, I have a gym buddy just like that. And the she'll always say to me something like *what weight was I lifting...I thought I was benching 5's* I usually end up telling her it was 15 or so, which she does with no problem.

But she's gotten so much better, they just need a push, and yes sometimes you have to just say "hey...I bet you're a lot stronger, you should try X weight for a few reps and see if it works for you".

she's deathly afraid of bulking up. I mentioned that her purse is heavier than the dumb bells and she thought that was hilarious. Seriously though, it's gonna be a challenge. We do cardio together but when it's time for weight lifting we are on opposite sides of the gym - I live in the free weight area and she's a machine chick. She comes to my side for bicep curls and shoulder work (with the 5s) and then is gone.

Tiki, good to see you again! How are you & the kids doing?

Hey Rabbit!!! Um, let's see. The Boy took his LAST final exam yesterday. His official graduation is June 7. He planned to sleep super late today so being the thoughtful mother that I am, I woke him up early and gave him a list of chores. LOL!! The Girl is fine. Wrapping up her sophomore year, and has her learner's permit. I'm afraid.......VERY afraid........


How are you doing?

im also a woman that bulks. It really just depends on your genetic makeup on how "easy" it is for your body to bulk.

If you are just doing your light weights and you are not seeing yourself bulk besides just basic muscle, you will be fine!

It is sort of like saying, "I don't want to pick up a golf club because I might hit the ball like Tiger Woods".

lol, i love it
