[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my crossfit box, it's a mark of accomplishment to have clothing difficulty. I don't lift because I want to wear shirts with sleeves. And I'm loving my lifter's butt. Maybe you should rethink what you're after - do you want to be skinny or strong? [/quote] No kidding. What a sorry statement on modern womanhood that substantive traits like strength are seen as less important than cosmetic ones like upper arm girth or clothing fit. One of my biggest jobs in life is to try to steer my daughter away from thinking about herself and her body this way. That you obviously look a million times better with more muscle should be just a bonus...but it ends up having to be the chief selling point to 90% of women to get them to lift. And then when they get a little inflammation they freak out and stop. Unfortunate. [/quote] +1. I have trouble fitting my thighs into pants sometimes, but when I say so it's 100% bragplaining.
