To add a serious note (why not, that guy stole my trolling thunder):

I've never trained a female any differently from a male.

When I say that, I mean it literally, not the *wink wink, nudge nudge* that often goes on. You know, where it's "Men and women should train exactly the same, except...." then go on to include pump-n-tone crap from Oxygen or Shape or whatever anyway.

My wife's doing a bodybuilding show in a few months and she's currently on a setup that's all but a powerlifting routine. Gradually it will include more bodybuilder-ish stuff (in both weight training and conditioning), but the basics of that strength development won't go away.

It works, and I see no reason to substitute fluffier crap just because she's female. I'd say the same for any other woman I worked with that had physique goals.
