New perspective. Definitely not complaining about an hour a day anymore.

It is SO worth it!

Why Women Should Not Run

hoorayforbutts:

Here’s another article re-edit/rerelease. This one was originally published on EliteFTS.com, and we’re presenting this updated and polished-up version today

Disclaimer: this is in terms of daily, long-term, steady-state cardio, not HIIT workouts or other types of intervals that typically have a <30 min duration and that are only performed 1-2 times per week.

Reading this is flippin’ my whole world around! Glad I made the switch to weights before I messed up my metabolism. That being said, I do still like to throw a long-distance run in there every now and then. :)

Hope this helps educate some girls to try weight lifting as an alternative. :)

Just another reason to lift heavy!
