I'm the one with the fat booty in purple shorts. I have always been a bottom heavy pear with a very small torso and waist, which makes my booty look even bigger in comparison. I've been lifting for 3...

Alright, so here's my current squat booty. Gonna propel me to new records at my meet in a couple of months :)

I would just stop talking about it. Outside of my gym friends, almost no one in my life understands powerlifting or anything about the lifestyle surrounding it. I also don't ask their opinions of it....

For the most part, cellulite is a function of genetics. It's normal and present on the vast majority of female bodies, including those of fitness competitors.

That being said, I have thick legs...

I have a love/hate relationship with my Mirena. I'm 18 months in and still having issues with frequent spotting and some cramping.

If you're worried about placement, you can check it yourself as...

As someone who's also pursuing an administrative/executive career, I think it's definitely a good thing to think this through. I think it would be possible to pursue as long as you stay off of social...

I tried wearing thongs and g strings but I hate them. Feels like they're just strangling my buttcrack. I don't wear underwear at all anymore because of it. Love the freedom!

It's extremely common to start experiencing irregular periods around your age. And if you were already lean, which I'm guessing you are, jumping into an intense workout program on top of the stress...

Saturated fats have been repeatedly shown to not have an effect on cholesterol levels.

You're correct that it's important to find eating habits that work for you personally, but the decision to...

It's not uncommon for women to experience a hormonal shift in their 30s, although this is a function of age, not the lifting. Many women begin perimenopause (basically pre-menopause) in their 30s or...

I have had big arms for as long as I can remember, in part due to genetics and in part due to a long competitive swimming career followed by years of weight gain and a sedentary lifestyle. They were...

I'm guessing that you need to get on an established program like Strong Curves, New Rules of Lifting for Women, Strong, or the like. Programs like these are designed so that you progress in strength...

This. Who gives a f*** what some idiot stranger thinks about you at the gym? You do you.

Ummm not really, lol. I work a physical job where I'm on my feet for 13 hours at a time so when I'm not lifting or working, I'm beat all to hell. I'm also in grad school full time. If I have free...

This made me lol, because it's something I would do. I wouldn't worry about it, though. Like spradish said, people have IG so that others will look at it. I'd just act like nothing happened. I'm sure...

I hate to be a Negative Nancy and all, but you should know that at least two of those three women are almost certainly not natural. If you do want to reach that level of muscularity naturally, it's...

Nurse/powerlifter here. I highly recommend consulting with your surgeon before you even think about squatting or deadlifting again. Colorectal issues are not something you want to play around with,...

That is a massive DVT and you absolutely need to talk to your doctors before engaging in any unnecessary movement, which is what working out is for you right now. If you do too much or move the wrong...

Immediate goals are 225/135/315. Then I'm going to try to drop about 10-12 pounds after my January meet so I can compete in the 132s. Late January/Feb is going to be miserable with the diet and a...

Exactly this.
