I know this is a weird question. But I’m just wondering. Please don’t kill me.

I do body weight exercises. And finding it harder to do exercises that want me to lay down on my front side. Because, my ____ is squishing.😮‍💨

Also, there is a stupid stigma that exercise makes women more masculine. But are there any workouts that make a man look feminine? Like, it would be bit weird to see a BLL sized butt on a man, right?

This question came to my mind when I saw a workout plan in my app. The plans’ name is “Bikini Body”. I was like, “I should probably stay away from this. But what happens if I did it anyway?”

    What’s funny is the Mike Matthews books, they are pretty much identical advice but the one for women is called:

    Thinner, Stronger, Leaner

    And the men’s - Bigger Stronger Leaner

    I cannot lift as heavy as my husband no way no how. But the mechanics of how we work out are not that different, only the weight.

    And the body fat comment is very true - if I am carrying 20% bodyfat I look lean as fuck, and 30% just looks normal but husband at 20% bodyfat looks padded. I don’t understand how that works but it’s absolutely true and he still (we are in our 50s) gets stronger faster, both in an absolute and a proportional sense, than I can. Not just muscle mass, also power. I have to do more to keep strength, he has to do more to fight getting fat.
