My GF is the same, she's scale obsessed, cardio obsessed and wont listen to ANYTHING i have to say, she thinks if she does ANY heavy weight low reps she will turn into a female BB overnight, she can't be told.
I give up trying to help her, I just told her when she gets fat she's history

Whats hilarious about their thinking is tuat body builders usually do higher reps...
And they do higher reps but dont want to be big? Logic anyway?
Look at female olympic athletes in light weight catagory.. All that low rep work and alot of them are stunning!

Example...
My lady was doing static DB lunges today, 4kg per hand, she does 20 left, 20 right then no rest and back into another 20 left, 20 right, 6 sets in a row, 120 reps total, no rest.
I tell her, what you are doing is FAR too light if you don't need a rest between sets, try doing 10kg per hand, 8 reps each side, and a 90 sec rest between sets
"Oh, 10kg per hand is WAY too heavy, I wont be able to do that"
"Just try it, if you can't then thats fine but I'm sure you will surprise yourself"
"No, I'll just keep doing my light weight high reps"
*Smashes head against wall*
Or else she says
"How do you know that anything you read off the internet is true? I'll just stick to what the trainer gave me"

My wife actually listens to me but she is not your normal gym going fitness mag reading person so she has not exactly been misinformed. The problem is she just does not like heavy weights as its "too hard", that could be a secret issue with some of the ladies and they just like to use the i will get huge excuse.

Hard?
I can think of anything harder then 30min on a cross trainer like a lunatic then a yoga class..
These women are insane...
Lifting heavy shit is easy. If its hard its over in 30 seconds... Not 30 minutes!!
Drain, your girl is normal. If she looks good now, what she's doing is fine.
She simply needs to stimulate the muscle, she doesnt need heavy weights for that.
Machines will work just as well as free weights for her goals. The reps should be between 8-15. Supersets are a great way to up the intensity. Train the whole body 3 x week, do some sort of difficult cardio, like sprints on the other day. This will give her the glutes every man and woman desire. Not on a treadmill.
She seems to understand nutrition, thats fantastic.
The only fat burners that work are illegal, ephedrine and clenbuterol, dont waste money on anything else.
Keep her exercising, because as you can tell, not all girls do. Dont give her a program she wont do. Add sprints into her training without adjusting anything else. Do it for a month, see how she looks then.
Keep telling her she looks great.

Drain, Be careful when it comes to using either clenbuterol and Epherdrine. I have been told the side effects of ECA stacks can be bad, however i have never used it so i cant say. I suggest that you do reasearch into the stuff before you take it.
Also a lot of Weight Loss products say they are an ECA (Epherdrine, Caffine and Asprin) Stack but have no EPherdrine just huge ammounts of Caffine and other stuff that doesnt work.
