Description

In this episode, Laura and Jared tackle the age-old myth that lifting heavy weights will make a person bulky. They reflect on what "bulky" may mean for different people and the social conditioning that leads us to believe looking bulky is "bad." They discuss the benefits of resistance training, the types of sports that involve lifts, and ultimately why lifting weights will not necessarily add bulk to your body (unless you want it to!).
