I agree… this is the hardest thing to explain to women because they have so many reservations. I love lifting heavy and seeing how powerful my body is. It’s a great feeling to progress! I have kept a workout journal for 3 years and it’s so cool to look back and see how far i have come.

Exactly! I always prefer a barbell over dumbbells because I really enjoy lifting heavy and seeing how much I can do. Though it’s great to mix it up and use dumbbells also, women shouldn’t be afraid of the barbells and plates!

Thank you for this! When I started lifting heavy, I got lots of comments about how I should put down the 45 lb. barbell for bicep curls. Really? Because mine looked better than theirs.
