friends that lift?

[muskles]

just wondering how many of you have friends who are girls that lift (of course, more weight than their purses)? i don't have any. i TRY not to talk to them about weights or diet so as not to potentially offend.

Hmmm come to think of it....

There are at least 5 or 6 girls in the immediate part of my office that go to the gym daily ... I see them there on my lunch sometimes...
Only one lifts ... the others are always talking about abs and cardio and sweat ....

Oh well, 2 out of 7 aren't bad I guess???

I have two girlfriends that lift. One has competed in two fitness competitions. I just started taking my boyfriend to the gym. He wants to put on muscle. No problemo..follow me. I like having a workout partner.

more weight than their purses

My sister is a BodyBuilder & on this board.

Otherwise I have ONE female friend who lifts intensely. She is also an aerobics instructor at my club. We have lifted before & are a good match, but unfortunately she lifts now at a time that I can't.

There is one co-worker of mine who has solicited my advice & she has no fear of "getting big" so I've designed a program for her. She is not very dedicated though.. just wanting to lose fat. Good for her, but it's low on her priority list.

I will talk about it - I don't worry about offending. How can me talking about my own lifestyle be offensive? I only try to keep the talk to a minimum so as not to BORE my friends

I beleieve my official title is Amateur BodyBuilder.

I have no girlfriends, so I guess the answer is no by default. I lift with my husband sometimes, and at times he helps me to push myself further than I EVER would have myself, but sometimes he takes the wind right outta my sails...
