good info though -a little condescending at times... but good info | lol your harsh mal. She actually has a little more flattering photo on her web site. She may not get a Covergirl contract anytime soon but you have to admit the body is on point.

Rep Power: 357933 | | Women do not look attractive while weight training... And the side view is just unflattering for any women over the age of 25...
Hey when you're as ugly as i am - you're allowed to point it out in others
It's not a body that's attractive to me - but it's good info - nothing really new... but eh -good info is hard to come by..

| I would disagree. I have seen some very attractive photos/vids of women doing weight training.

Rep Power: 403454 | | | Hey thanks for the info I only read through the first part, I'll get to the rest during lunch.
BTW I have seen some super sexy pics of ladies working out, Minna Lessig for example (female fit compeitor). And it makes me wonder if real women really wear booty shorts and sports bras to the gym.. I've never seen it.

| Not to my gym lol. There are only like 5 women that go to my gym and of those only 1 have I ever seen in the weight area and she wears sweats and loose t-shirt.
I did go to my wifes gym once and there was a young girl there. 20-25. She was rockin some tight pants and skin tight tank top. It was actually a little distracting. I'll just put it this way. She may have been in the Smith Machine but those squats were still working. She was smoking hot.

Rep Power: 403454 | | | LOL, yeah I think there was only one lady at the gym I used to go to that was super buff that would rock the sports bra and spandex leggings... but I honestly think most women are too worried about who is looking or not looking to wear stuff like that. I have considered taking off my tank during aerobics because its so danm hot, but I just can't do it!
