A joke today

10 good reasons why women should stay away from weights! (can you hear the sarcasm?)

1. You might break a nail.
2. You could even bruise a male ego or two.
3. You’ll eat properly and still be able to lose fat. Work of the devil!
4. You’ll look more like an athlete and less like a runway model. Skeletal is sexy,
right?
5. You’ll be able to lift heavy things without asking a man for help, thus upsetting
the balance of the universe.
6. You will be seen in public without high heels.
7. You’ll grunt, sweat and feel sore. So unladylike!
8. You’ll be proud of your pert bum instead of being self conscious about it like a
normal woman.
9. You’ll be more active and confident instead of sitting around looking pretty.
What are you, some kind of feminist?
10. You’ll be stronger, leaner and sexier – and we all know where that can lead

For all the ladies out there who don't lift weights because they don't want to bulk up, I'll let you in on a secret- YOU CAN'T BULK UP! Want to know the reason why? Because we are not men! We do not have the testosterone levels that men do. What happens when a woman lifts weights is that she gets toned and fit and will lose fat and gain muscle. The more muscle you gain, the more your metabolism speeds up. The more your metabolism speeds up, the more you get to eat!! What a concept!!! You eat more, and tone up and look fabulous. Your muscles need fuel to work the way you need them to, this is why a healthy nutrition plan is so important.
Notice I didn't say diet. Diets don't work, but a healthy lifestyle does!
