IN CELEBRATION OF ALL YOU HARDLIFTING, HARDBODIED CHICKS OUT THERE
We Love You!

There is something about those ladies that lift.

I mean those ladies that seriously lift – I’m not talking about the itty bitty pink weights, treadmill-skulking, matching outfits and sneakers crowd.

I am talking about the hardbodies!

There’s this magnificent allure about the girls who go against the grain and shift some iron.

The way they get ready for the set.

The look in their eyes.

The determination in their gaze…

The way they sit on the bench and mentally prep the set out…

The way their body tenses up just before they unhook the bar…

The way their….

OK, OK, dammit!!

We just CAN’T resist hardlifting, hardbodied chicks!!

We tried.

And. We. Just. Can’t!

Nah-huh!!

You see, ladies that lift are a singular and rather select species.

There are so many myths, inaccuracies, fears, and downright lies surrounding this activity, that it’s a wonder there are any females that would actually try to touch a weight at all.

Let alone lift one. Or three.

Ever heard that line “I don’t lift weights because I don’t want to get too muscular?”

Well, I have.

Nauseatingly often.

One of the worst lies in all of fitness.

Destroying the hopes of many to this day.

Winston Churchill once said

“A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”

What he omitted to say is that a lie also tends to stick like glue in the places that it visits – regardless of how idiotic and baseless it might be.

With that in mind, I can only say one thing.

Thank God for the ladies who can see through the lies!

Because hitting the iron is hands down the number one best physical activity a woman can engage in.

Well, OK!! Second best!!!

That’s because the number one indicator of longevity in females is – MUSCLE MASS!!

You heard me right.

The more muscle a woman carries, the longer and healthier she will live.

And that’s not opinion – that’s a fact that’s still struggling to get its pants over its ankles.

So do me a favour – tell THAT to the first girl you see today!

You might save a life.

As to the others who already know the truth – keep on lifting ladies!

You make the rocking world go round!

Just beast it, you beauties!
