We need so much more of this education and awareness. I constantly see it at the gyms and have clients who absolutely insist they are afraid to bulk and freak out when they gain a little extra weight. The biggest challenge, for me, is the info is coming from a male so they interpret it differently.

Great job ladies. 80 year old male who admires you greatly, beauty and strength. Awesome on the pullups and power lifts. When my wife was pregnant with my first son she saw my chinning bar and asked how many I could do. I added 5 and said 15. She said I can do that. Lifted her up and she knocked out 10 and did not want to strain. Wish she could have done power lifting. Always told my sons they got their athleticism from their mother.

Great info!! Pls keep this women series going!🙏🏻

I just turned fifty this year myself. Gotta say it’s good to see you ladies in the gym, especially the older age groups. Keep after it!!

I'm a powerlifting dude, but I found this really interesting 👍🏼

This is great info for those of us women starting out in strength training. I'm 63 with many disabilities/health conditions, but I'm just now going back in the gym for the winter, to learn the basics of form and strengthen up. After that, I want to start lifting, if I can.

You ladies are awesome!!! Would love to see more content from the female SSCs....including my coach Mia!!

This is great. Training my mother and sister myself. I'm really excited for them

Great information for women! Thank you so much!!

Inna and Nicole, thank you very much for your video.

Thank you, I will pass this on to a couple of women. It’s short, sweet and to the point

🙌 Thanks, Ladies!

This is awesome! This really helps. Thank you!

I would like to see more from these ladies.

These are facts ladies. Getting stronger improves posture which makes you appear thinner, but it's just that you carry yourself better, with improved gait, more confidence. Starving yourself to reach some arbitrary number on a scale does the opposite. Eat well, gain muscle..Then you'll find it easier to cut weight and get that "beach body" if you must. Which you won't really need to do because you'll look great anyway!

very helpful as always - thank you

Awesome info! Well said.

I've been trying to get my wife to come with me to the gym! She really like the CrossFit place near our house, but at the frequency she goes, there's no way she's going to make progress towards losing the body fat and building muscle. I've been slowly introducing the idea of her coming to the gym with me and do an NLP for at least 6 months. The struggle is finding the right time and getting a reliable babysitter at least 3 times a week for an hour or so. I think she'd REALLY benefit from SS lifting. I know I have!

ThIs is great. Hope the two of you will do more videos on SS.

Great info. Thank you ladies. Gonna have my wife watch this.

Well done ladies.

Yes! We need more content for women!!!

Great info ladies 👍🏾

Great information. I'm not underweight but can't progress. So I have to be ok eating and fueling my body. More like this please!

I am 66 and started going to threes about 2 months ago. I just couldn't seem to get through my fives. Thank you for this because I get nothing from that grey book.

Great! Kudos!

What would your warm up sets look like if your work sets are 3's? Also incorporating 3's into a volume day instead of 5 x 5 what would be the alternative in terms of 3's. Thank you

This is good info. I'm trying to learn how to coach all people, and womens weight lifting is something I just don't know.

Thanks

Awesome!

“harder longer” - That’s what she said!

For the 50 year old lady. What are your lifting numbers?

Ignore the weight scale, nearly altogether. The big style lifts will put lean body mass on big areas of the body.

I just noticed the klingon flag in the background!!!

How much rest time would you do in between sets?

It's pronounced threaaahhves.

Do women continue to pull 1x5 on their deadlifts? Thank you.

Athletic strong women are so hot!!!

What are threes?

What about the deadlift that should be 1 set of five, should it be 2 sets of 3?

@startingstrength hey guys, how can I snag one of those tee's?

Ladies, assume the position.

Interesting hypothesis, women cant recruit the same number of motor units to disrupt homeostasis at 5 sets across . Im 66 and struggling with to go to sets of three or just do the back off method for the press. I cant seem to find the sweet spot like I have for the bench just add 2 lbs ever session 3 sets of 5.

What are their instagrams?

Not a lady but I agree :)

When she said women can go longer, harder than men can; that's why some of these people of today don't like having different genders. Both men and women are part of a master design that compliment each other and it's obviously a design. You can get spiritual about it. Women work on a high vibration level, even to the point they have higher voices. They are more in tune with the active little babies and children around them because that's the design. Men are lower vibration, but stronger. I'm thinking most of you probably get what I'm saying.

Skinny fat isnt attractive. Strong and healthy is.

WHERE'S BRE

講好處虛弱衰老說清楚讚讚

There is no reason to bulk. Most women are already carrying extra body weight. Even if you are a healthy weight you do not need to gain weight to add muscle. You will (slowly) gain muscle weight and lose fat if you’re at a good caloric intake.

thraaaaahves

Imagine thinking American women are "resistant to putting on bodyweight".. Have you ever looked outside? I don't think thats a problem in the West.

ok but I'd rather ask joe

just surprised to see em squatting with a tank on, that'll tear your skin up

2:24 if that's true then why are the top athletes in every single sport men ???

is that a Klingon flag?

Nicole is hot af

Lol, online coaching.

cant recruit the muscles? doesn't make sense, could it be mitochondria ? women store fat easy maybe men store TCP better. so creatine. Anyway I am not questioning the results only the theory as to why.

Why the Weight Gain?

Do trans men/women do 4 reps since they’re half-man half- woman?

How much milk should be drunk?
