Then she went on to say I should do pliaties (sp). Which is a good form of exercise- but I want to get stronger. She said it makes you "long and lean".
That response has been 100% of what people not on this board have told me. It's depressing.
Based on NROL4W (finally got that accronym right!) you won't bulk up. Uhhhh... it would be bad for me to bulk up- very bad- muscle good- bigger inches with the tape measure bad. Why do I let what people say get to me so much? |
You have to relax
. Put this way, unless you can defy the laws of thermodynamics (doubtful), if you train heavy and eat to maintain your bodyweight there is no way you'll "bulk up."
