[quote=Anonymous]As an athlete and a Personal Trainer, I find this post beyond disgusting. I’m 55 and have been training and coaching since I was 23. I’ve coached young athletes in just about every sport out there. I’m primarily a strength and conditioning coach. OP, your kind of thinking leads to body dysphoria and eating disorders, especially in young girls. These can be deadly. Girls should be strong. Girls should have muscle. Healthy bodies are designed to move safely. Why would you see strength as anything but positive? These girls are building strong bone density that will last them a lifetime. They are dramatically decreasing the likelihood of injury during play. And they are developing lifelong habits of discipline, focus, perseverance, and commitment to health. I can’t believe people still think this way about girls in 2021. Unreal. [/quote]
