[quote=Anonymous]If by looking strong you mean having visible muscles, it depends enormously on genetics. Body fat, too, but that’s also a lot of genetics - not everyone can reduce body fat low enough to see muscles in a healthy way. There’s also some muscle memory involved, so people who started strength training at a young age and are getting back into it have some advantage. I say this as a woman who puts on muscle fairly easily (again, genetics and I started lifting in high school). When I wear tank tops, people ask me if I CrossFit (no). I’ve had plenty of lifting partners/teammates over the years who are just as strong as me but who don’t look it - they weren’t fat, it was just harder for them, as it is with most women, to build muscle.[/quote]
