Second you there. It is unlikely I'll ever be fit enough to win a race of any importance. I just want to not look like a fat slob. I don't like healthy food enough to ever be healthy no matter how strong or fast I am anyways.
More power to this lady though. She's got a better goal and attitude than most of us can aspire to.
I'll second your second. I go to the gym for health first and looks second. Improving my performance is simply a byproduct of improved health.
She's from Lousiville, Kentucky and I gather shes a LOT like Ellen Degeneres Queen Latifah Jodi Foster and Martina Navratalova if you know what I mean. None of those are your frilly, lacey, dainty lady, feminine fashionistas. Its all pants and more pants and no makeup with them.
Still, I think her message, specifically her routines of working out are solid and should be followed by a lot of the regular women who post here who are in need to dropping some poundage but dont know how, or, are afraid of looking like a "prepubescient boy" or "manly" as they ridiculously like to say.

Yup, how annoying. And precisely illustrates her point. Why should she have to put herself on display to be ogled if she doesn't want that. And lets be real, that is the only purpose of the bikini pics.

well, the fact that she is lying (in my opinion) takes away from her point.

so what if she is or isnt hiding? im just commenting that her reasons are bs and the real reason is that she is hiding something.
That's the wrong question. Why is she expected to post pics of herself in a bikini to "prove" she is buff/strong/fit. Where does that expectation come from.

I am on my phone, please forgive the typos.
a lot of people want to see if the people they take advice from successfully practice what they preach. they want to think "if i follow what this person says, i can look like that also." from the looks of this girl, im guessing she isnt as strict with her diet as she probably tells others. so while she is far from fat, her belly probably isnt as impressive as she would like it to be. there is also the possibility of other abnormalities that she doesnt want to show.
but im not really asking a question. im saying that she is making up a reason to cover up the truth that she is hiding something. i dont think she isnt showing herself because thats not what she cares about. i see that her answer makes some people happy, im assuming these are people who also feel they fit into the category of "healthy and strong, but doesnt look good enough to be comfortable showing it off."
