I don’t want to bulk, I want to tone.

I hope this week’s fitness tip finds you all doing very well. If I were given a dime for everytime I have been asked this following question, I would surely be a multi-millionaire right now. Female OR Male Speaking; “I don’t want to bulk or build, I want to tone.” CLASSIC. Okay, you will not build and bulk as a female due to estrogen, the female hormone. For a man, it’s easier to build due to testosterone. So relative to your own body weight, you need to be lifting weights that are heavy that you can still maintain good form on. Trust me, I have seen way to many women use light weights over and over and they are still struggling to lose weight and tone their body. The answer, lift hard, lift heavy and watch your body change and tone! It’s also good for the bones to strengthen! Example, if walking lunges with your own bodyweight become easy, don’t you think it is time to grab some 5 lbs weights and hold them as you do them? Feel that soreness? Yes, you do. Don’t believe me? Go up and ask a woman at the gym who is very toned and solid and ask her if she lifts light and easy so it’s not a challenge and she doesn’t get a good burn from the weights? You might get a strange look though.
