Next time they say some shit simply push them on the ground then pick them up and start bicep curling them.

Sorry to hear that, I grew up in church and all that and my mom and sister both work out almost daily, as well as me and my brother. Weird family ig, good luck w the gains though!

my mom is the same, she doesn’t want me to be “too bulky”

Never listen to them girl, you’re bettering yourself and YOU know that. Just because they’re your family doesn’t mean they can’t be bad people. If they wanna act like that, protect your peace.

you need to tell them being worried ab a woman lifting weights becoming manly is like being afraid of singing in the shower bc ur scared you’ll turn into beyoncé.

My dad doesnt really care and he actually wants to see everyone in the family hit the gym but my mom consistently harasses me about my gains telling me that my arms are too big and I need to stop because im “hurting” myself and she tries to attribute pain or sickness i get to being due to the gym. Mentally taxing. (I’m a man)

working out is healthy? its not all about body building (which is fine if thats what you want) but workouts have a baseline goal of being healthier? its extends your life? why is that bad

Share it with me bro. Girls support girls. Fuck them.

Lifting is particularly important for women?? It helps with bone density which goes to shit if you have kids and when you get old. It’s literally preventing you from needing a hip replacement at 65 or falling and breaking bones when you’re old

That sucks, it’s a shame that so many people have this backwards idea of what people should look like. Keep getting those gains! Don’t let anyone push you around! You’re awesome!
