[quote=Anonymous]The answer to this depends a lot on where you are in terms of resistance training experience. If you are new to lifting, starting a barbell resistance training program focused on compound lifts (bench press, squats, deadlifts, overhead press) will likely get you pretty far toward what you’re looking for. There is a lot of misinformation around women lifting (e.g. that they will look like body builders if they lift big weights, that lifting tiny dumbells is anything other than a total waste of time). The reality is that you can’t “accidentally” look like a body builder. This thread has a lot of pictures of regular women that clearly illustrates that point (note it’s super long so worth paging through the first several pages). https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/977538/halp-heavy-lifting-made-me-supah-bulky [/quote]
