Myth 1: LIFTING “HEAVY” MAKES YOU BULKY. Females have much lower testosterone levels than men (15-20 times lower) so hormonally speaking it is much more challenging for women tobecome ‘jacked’. Myth 2: MUSCLE CANT TURN INTO FAT. Fat and muscle are completely different tissue types so even if you decrease your training load the muscle wont suddenly turn into fat. Ifyou lose some of your hard earned muscle mass, you’ll burn fewer calories per day.
