Moaning about the DM is beside the point. The fact is, the article reflects what many people think.
I found it interesting.
First, the idea that a lean, muscular body isn't appealing to men.... I don't think that's true. Plenty of men love that look. Plenty others prefer soft and plump or skinny.
Second, I saw no "six packs" in those photos. Davina comes closest. But pretty much any woman with little fat on her belly will have defined abs. A true "six pack" requires some serious work to achieve. I'm talking about lots of training and weighing your food with a sharp eye on the ratios of protein to carbs to fat. The models in fitness adverts usually diet and dehydrate before a photo shoot. Even they don't look like that all the time.
Finally, the idea that lifting weights will make you bulky and muscular: ask any woman who actually wants to look like a body builder if it's easy and she'll laugh. Women can't gain that sort of muscle without going to some extreme lengths.
I get so tired of seeing women on here (the exercise board) talking about running, running, running. If strength training comes up, they say "I don't want to get too big. I just want to tone up." Well, don't worry. Because you can't. Not unless you want to to an extraordinary degree and are willing to make drastic changes to your life.
Women who lift weights generally do it because they want to be strong and healthy. We want to be able to move furniture or put our suitcases in the overhead storage without having to ask for help.
And, yes, we want to look good. To fight the inevitable and inexorable loss of bone and muscle that begins in your 40s and accelerates with menopause.
Lifting heavy weights will give you a curvy bottom, shapely arms, and independence into your old age.
