Why is it, that you still see pictures of women doing tricep kickbacks with soup cans?
Seriously? Have we not moved beyond this non-sense yet?
I hope to get women to realize that they have the potential to be strong. Not only can they be strong, but they can still look like a woman! Most of the women I have trained get a huge surge of motivation and determination once their strength increases. Heck, some of them get more motivated than the men I have worked with.
Our society has put it in women's minds that they are to be frail, small, and weak. Well . . . I say no more! There is a since of security and accomplishment that I have knowing I can bench press over my bodyweight, and deadlift almost twice my weight. And ya know what? I'm going to lift more! And ya know what else? I still look feminine! I don't have tree trunk legs or traps like a line-backer.
More to come. This is an important topic for me.
And by the way: if any of you women are still lifting soup cans . . . please stop, now. It degrades us all.
