[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so dumb. I had HUGE shoulders and back in college due to being a gymnast. Literally 6 months after I finished college I lost 20 pounds and all of it was muscle in my arms and shoulders. The muscles only stay if you use them! Be proud![/quote] I'm a dude who has been lifting heavy for 30 years. At this point, I lose muscle mass if I take a week off. The notion that women and girls (who have a much tougher time bulking, especially upper body) will gain permanent muscle mass by doing youth sports is hilarious. PP - tons of respect for the effort and training required to be a collge gymnast. Many years ago, I worked with a recent grad who was a gymnast, and his functional strength was unbelievable.[/quote]
