Tip # 1: Females should NOT be afraid to lift heavy weights. It won't make you 'manly' or bigger!
This fact resounds throughout the fitness community. Any trainer, coach or fitness professional will tell you this exact fact. If you want to make any sort of significant changes with a stubborn body part you need to challenge it, and I mean crush it. If you are someone who dreams of wearing shorts this upcoming summer but dislike the appearance of your legs then it's time to put the demand on them to shrink, sculpt and form into a perfect pair of stems!
Check out this article on Figure Athlete. It was written in 2008 by Rachel Cosgrove, whom I hired to prepare me for my first figure competition as well as a subsequent one that year. She is an owner of a well known gym, author, trainer and female motivator who has really taught me a lot about weight training and fitness.
Don't let the first image scare you away... I know the majority of women, myself included, don't desire to have legs quite like her. The site moderator fills the majority of the images for articles. However, the image of the woman with the purple stoned suit is yours truly!

A great read that should help you to think differently about your weight selections. 2011 can be the year for sculpted, athletic and sexy legs!
