"Tom Platz did high rep squatting as a regular part of his workout routine.
Not only did he have huge legs, but he was huge and thick all over."

Some women say: "I don't want to lift weights because I don't want to get big and bulky." To me, that's like saying: "I don't want to take up running because I I'm afraid I'll look like Paula Radcliffe." Most people don't have the time or genetics to reach either of those goals.
I'm recovering from knee surgery and I miss running and the weight room ever so much. :'(

I'd rather be strong and muscular than doughy at any size, but I hate it when my exercise regimen means I can no longer wear shirts with banded sleeves. My favorite shirt dress doesn't fit over my newly-buffened arm muscles!
So while I agree that mostly they're being whiny, I don't necessarily think all of them are being idiots.

I want something there when I flex! Preferably something biggish.

Protein is the answer, by the way. It's hell on your kidneys unless you drink tons of water, but by God will you bulk.

@BabyFem: I have no fat-burning skills, but I will happily take that muscle-building thing off your hands. It seems that some people have more... I don't know... malleable? shapes than others. My sister bulks up quickly, but gains/loses weight quickly, too. I am like a turtle. I gain/lose SO SLOWLY. I could starve myself, it seems, and my body'd take a week or so to notice. So much for the calorie in/out theory!

I feel like if I started doing frequent intense cardio workouts I would start to hate them and make up stuff about how Obama is like Hitler or something equally moronic just because I don't like change.

I have my Jillian Michaels DVD, but started hating her after two or three weeks. Sigh.

Maybe this was just me being sweaty and projecting, but I'm relieved to hear that I'm not the only one who grows to resent people in exercise DVDs.

It's also a relatively inexpensive form of exercise and something you can do at home or outside. Minimal equipment, no expensive membership required.

What if you're short, huh? Is Michelle Obama's body attainable THEN?

Sometimes I also do this using a chair or ottoman under my hands but keeping my feet on the floor. Just depends on how much I feel like crab walking that day.

I need a flow chart.

New shoes? I'm really not that into shoes, plus not every woman wears the same size across brand.
Their advice for dealing with a woman who is self-conscious about her body is to stop complimenting her because apparently saying "Nice legs" makes women think you hate their butt. What?
The article say that women don't orgasm because they think to much but all of there advice basically involves bossing her around. As if just doing what Men's Health says should work, no need to actually ask her how she likes to be touched.
Its one big fail.
