Great video!!! Women have alot of misconceptions about weight training. I get asked all the time about lifting and when I tell them exactly what this guy said in his video women crinkle their nose and say 'I do not not want to get big" I tell them to look at me Do I look big? The answer of course is no and then they go right back to "I do not want to get big" AHHH! Women hear the word "intense" and "heavy lifting" and they think they will get big.
That's the typical american thinking they know more than someone who aqctually does it!!
I had to fight time and again with the women when I was in personal training sales.
I usually won! It was my job to.
But it is sooooo frustrating to hear "that's too heavy"
Or "I don't want big muscles"
THe worst was "I've started and I just get bigger"
When you actually find out what they're eating then it becomes very clear!!
Most people think that now because they just started exercising two days ago they can become a regular at the buffet!!!
Sorry for the rant....
But you are right Karrie - you can have someone look at you and say you look great when you tell them what you do and as soon as you tell them to do it "they don't want to be big"
A lot of that is from simply being LAZY!!!
They don't want to lift because it's not as easy and screwing off on the eliptical.
It's simply a different mindset and actually I think for the better.
I'd rather have something special about "US" instead of everyone doing the same thing.
If they ask "What do you do?" I simply tell them "You wouldn't be able to handle it" and move along.
I have grown very cynical toward people lately and really dont care to help them if they aren't willing to listen and help themselves.
IF they are willing to truly try, then I'll go to great lengths to help if not...........
Let them be fat!

) and I had to buy larger pants because my legs became too muscular!" and I keep answering them that it's not that easy to have huge legs... I've been trying for the last 12 years and have not made it yet!
