Re: Lifting Weights, Working Out.

Bulk--yes.

Strength--well, maybe. My arms topped out in terms of strength pretty quickly, and no amount of working out could get them stronger. No idea why. I was still stronger than most other women but not as strong as people who lifted weights as much as I did. With my legs, though, I kept getting stronger and stronger. I could squat over 300lbs on a machine, with 20 reps. I have no idea what the difference is.
