To lift or not to lift: should all women be weight training?
Growing up, the message on muscle was singular: you needed them, sure, but they shouldn’t be very visible. This was back in the ‘90s, when the only women I knew of who showed off their bulging biceps were Gladiators on the Saturday night show, or, well, Madonna.
were off the table if you wanted that ‘90s lean look, and most classes were accordingly focussed around cardio, with three exercise gurus leading the way: Mr Motivator, Jane Fonda, and the Cindy Crawford in her Shape Your Body work out video.
