In my previous post, I talked about folks who fear that if you start working out, you run the risk of looking like some hideous bodybuilder.  That's simply a foolish fear, unfounded in any sort of reality.
Most people don't go that far.  However, a lot of women have more moderate fears.  They don't want to lift weights because they fear that they'll develop too much muscle.  Again, that's just a foolish concern.  First of all, a bit of muscle on a woman is SEXY.  Second, it's extremely unlikely that they'll develop so much muscle that they'll start to look masculine -- especially if they're generally feminine in their appearance.  Third, when they do develop muscle, it will be a gradual process, so it's not as though they are likely to be taken by surprise at how massive their biceps have become.
