Bodybuilding and your S/O?

Current gf is encouraging me to train but to back off a bit on the walking (100km in 3 weeks).

Trying to get her to do a bit of training or to do some regular swimming as she's complaining about being 4kg over weight (currently 48kg). Persuaded her to try bikram yoga with me next weekend (I've been doing it since november).
 
Mine also hates the traps and has a real thing about lats as well.

I showed mine the pic of Hugh's (lack of) quads doing the DL........ Her reply was "what's wrong with his legs? They look good". :eek: I was speachless, think I'm getting the feeling a lot of women dont like big muscle. :confused:

It's not that women don't like muscle its just that they like beach muscles. The bros at the gyms have known this for ages.

Yea, they definately prefer the dude out the front of the Hollister store to the grunter in the squat rack.
 
The wifes loving my arse at the moment. Haha. Says the lats are a bit wierd though hahaha.

Is horrified when I come gome after a squat session though. Usually crippled and sporting a crazy squat bar indentation on my back from low bar haha.

Tim.
 
Luckily, the missus took an interest in lifting a while back now. She started to notice the progress I was making, liked it, but also... maybe was thinking she was "falling behind" sort of thing. Apparently this happens a lot in relationships when one but not the other gets in shape, be it through exercise or diet, or both.

So anyway, we both lift. It's good.
