Weekly Non-sense

So I was reading around the net the other day when I came across an article that made me mad and happy at the same time. If you have followed my blog you would have read about the "trainer" known as Tracy Anderson. For those of you unsure of her, she is a celebrity trainer who is most known for Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna. She is what some would call THE DEVIL. For some reason people, especially women, listen to her and take her advice of starving yourself and doing mind-numbing amounts of reps with little to no weight. As the woman once quoted saying a woman should never lift more than 3 pounds to avoid "bulking", she has released many products that have somehow sold well. Anyway, the article can be read here.

It makes me happy to see that people are finally realizing her diet "advice" is actually very dangerous and will only make your body go crazy and put you at numerous health risks. Hopefully more people will start to understand how problematic this method can be and will start to make smarter choices with nutrition and training. It angers me however, that women out there are buying her products, believing in her systems, and still avoiding lifting heavy things.

Listen ladies, lift heavy weights and push yourselves in the gym. Eat good meals and stick to natural, fresh foods. stay consistent with your eating and your training and look like a sexy woman, not an emaciated one such as Gwyneth Paltrow (who was recently diagnosed with osteopenia...weird).
