I did weight lifting like exercises all summer like lifting bales of straw over my shoulder with one arm. Arms & legs only look muscular when I flex & my belly is still squishy. Otherwise I look skinny. I’m strong now but I don’t look it. What gives? 😭😔

this is just how your body distributes your fat. women tend to hold more of their fat around their uterus to protect it, but if you really don’t want it, you can continue exercising your abs to grow your muscles in that area, and then cut and prioritize protein to get rid of excess fat. just be careful, too much of a cut can cause problems and you will still lose fat in other places
