I think that a musclebound woman is quite ugly, but a well toned woman is lovely. I like muscles on a man, but not Mr Universe if you get my drift.....

I keep a set of 8 lb weights at home. It's a great substitute for massage and takes all the stress out of my neck and shoulders. (makes that taut strung like a guitar string feeling go away....) I also utilize the leg weights at PT. They want to build some endurance in my left leg, which is missing a LOT of hamstring and some sartoris due to tumors. Sometimes, since women are people, and people each have their own crosses to bear, sometimes it's not about you, dear..... P.S. Weight bearing exercise fights osteoporisis which tends to be prevalent in women. No medical degree for you. Who has time to go to the gym.

My women arms are made for helping my children and my man, to clean, to do everything fit for a woman. I take one weight and my arm ends up sprained. I found it nasty, and unattractive to men.

Medical professionals constantly state than strength training must occur along with aerobic training. Say a woman is working on losing weight (could be after having a child). You want her to regain her muscle tone, right? You can't do that by picking up babies and doing housework alone. That's just not enough. Going to the gym and doing strength training with the aerobic activity will help her lose the weight and regain her muscle tone. She will be healthier in the long run. It's not about being like a man, but about health and the body being finely tuned. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is not just about eating right and aerobic activity.

It helps combat against major illness and even diseases. Sometimes, the only proper (safe) place to get exercise is at the gym. I know, in the city I live in, I would never go running late at night. The gym affords people the opportunity to exercise whenever they want to, sometimes even staying open 24 hours. Sandstorm, you should remember that not EVERY woman has children and not EVERY woman cleans the house. I believe exercising at the gym is a healthy habit to have, for either sex.
