If I hear “Lifting makes you bulky and masculine”, I’ll knock myself out with a 45lbs dumbbell. No, weight training does not make you masculine, if anything, it makes you sexy! I’m tired of infamous juice cleanses, detox teas, waist trainers, and other Insta-famous products to keep a starving size zero.
We’re over the Paris Hilton 2000’s era of peaking hip bones, rib cages, Fad diets, and salads,. Thinner is not better, let’s add mass to our glutes, cinch the waist, and tone up our arms.
