Forget what you’ve heard about weight lifting making you bulky. You don’t naturally have the chemical makeup (aka testosterone) for that to happen. Women who appear that way have been “enhancing.”

How much should you lift? As much as you can while maintaining good form for that rep count. When you are hitting all the repetitions for that set, it’s time to make it heavier. The idea that the only way to get toned is by lifting super light weights a gazillion times is nonsense.

How often should you lift? Depending on your goals, 2-5 times a week. Women tend to focus on cardio over strength training and that’s a mistake.

Let’s recap: Lift heavy. Lift often. Rinse and repeat.

I was feeling defeated and frustrated with my health due to a chronic illness, but Matthew and the group met me where I was at and provided the balance of grace and truth that I needed. I lost 10 lbs during my first challenge, but more importantly I learned to be faithful with my responsibilities (eating well, exercising, etc.) and to trust God with the rest.
