Interesting stories!
I have a picture of me (about age 8) standing beside my brother, wearing a pink t-shirt with the words "Anything boys can do, girls can do better" on it. I love that photo....
I started strength training in high-school to build muscle because I was a competitive rider (equestrian). Now, I strength train because I love it. I love feeling strong and looking strong. Oh...and it's something I can share with my husband.....our workouts in the gym.
I think there's so much information out there about how to get fit and strong, too much maybe that people get side-tracked and confused.
If I counted all of the 'strong women' images I see in a day, from TV ads,shows, magazines, billboards, or just from looking at people walking down the street.....I'd still be trying to get to the number 5. Why do so many women believe it's not their place to be strong? Because they don't see it often enough.
In regards to push-ups....bring them on!!!
