Ladies Muscle Gain Challenge


We are looking at keeping yo all up to date with the progress of the 3 ladies who have taken on our strength and muscle gaining challenge. The aim of the challenge is to prove that you can completely change your body shape and look better by lifting heavy weights! Women are generally scared of looking "too muscular" etc... But in reality you will most likely have to be supplementing with either a testosterone booster or even testosterone itself in order to achieve the bulky look because women simply do not produce enough of this hormone to stimulate huge muscle growth. Instead you will grow strong lean muscle, you will look healthier and even though the scales will most likely not show it you will loads loads of body fat! Simply put more muscle equals higher metabolic rate which keeps you slimmer for longer!

The challenge is 10 weeks long with the girls doing at least 4 sessions per week. Each session focuses on a different body part which allows a full week for most muscles to fully recover. At the end of the challenge we compare before and after measurements and photographs to determine a winner! Plus as a bonus each of the girls are putting €10 per week into a prize kitty for the winner to take away! Let the fun Begin!

So here is the post from one of the ladies with her experiences on week 1:

Week 1
I love a challenge. I love to see how far I can push myself and if i end up with pain in my muscles ,so sore I can hardly lift a cup of tea, or my legs left feeling like rubber with the thought of walking up and down the stairs horrifying me then all the better. It's a good pain. Its a good fatigue, because i know have worked hard. I know the results will be worth it in the end.
This first week has been a baptism of fire. I thought I was fit and tht it would be easy. I was wrong. I have been taken out of my comfort boy both Anthony and Mikey, and pushed HARD.
I've been weighed, measured poked prodded, made lift weights I never thought I could and been left on the floor with a puddle of sweat around me. And I love it.
But I couldnt do it without the support encouragement and the odd shout from Anthony and Mikey. They believe I can do it, so now I know I can.
Week 2 BRING IT ON!
