Do You Want to Build Long, Lean Muscle? – Balanced Vibes Ep 142

Sign up for the Know Your Numbers workshop! kerstenkimura.lpages.co/live-webinar-april-2022
On this workshop, you learn how to know how many calories and protein is needed for your unique physique, performance and other fitness goals. Instead of dieting and going from one quick fix to another, you will find out what works for you in the long term — and that is not starvation!

Have you ever said that you want to build longer, leaner muscle, and believed that there are certain types of workouts that help you do just that?

If so, today's episode is for you.

You may have noticed that certain workouts, like yoga, Pilates or strength training where you're doing high number of repetitions with small weights, are advertised as workouts that get you “long, lean muscles”. These workouts are of course targeted towards women because it sounds very feminine. No man would want long lean muscle.

But, there's a problem with this…

In this episode, you'll learn why you can't have “longer” muscles, what's wrong with the notion of “lean muscle”, and what is actually required if you want to see better muscle definition or muscle “tone”.
