Summary:

 

This is part two of our series, so catch the first episode if you missed it! Today, I'm busting the myth that you can build "lean" or "bulky" muscle—you’re either building, losing, or maintaining. I'll share a time when we had to dial back weight training for a client prepping for a competition. Plus, we’ll chat about why you might need to target specific body parts and why the idea that women should lift less just won’t go away.
