I go on my dashboard thingy, and I see girls saying “omg look at those collar bones and look at her thigh gap, I can’t wait to get mine”. Mind blown at such things, I quickly made this. 
1. Collar Bones:
You all have fucking collar bones. I promise you, anatomically speaking. I know you all know that, I’m just being a dick haha. But! Your collar bones become more evident with lower body fat, of course. So how do we do that? A calorie deficit diet, and exercise (Cardio, HIIT, lifting, etc.) is the logical route. No magic. Simple as that. Diet and exercise.
2. Thigh Gaps:
I don’t even… Funny how you don’t see their feet or how their legs are positioned in most of these pictures. I even have a thigh gap by manipulating how I stand, and I am a 6 foot male with rather large legs. And remember, images on tumblr (especially these images in question) are often edited or in myspace angles to look better than they are. So don’t let this get to you or demotivate you. cmon brahettes.
3. Hip bones:
So, hip bones are also the same situation with collar bones, lower body fat and they are more visible, logically. Eat properly and diet properly. It shouldn’t be something that determines your level of beauty or how nice your body is. 
What I’m trying to focus on is: Do not worry about these things. Don’t focus on them or don’t let these pictures on your tumblr feed demotivate you. They have no real substance. What you have to do is focus on living a healthier lifestyle and becoming fit. All that comes later. Focus on the main goal and don’t allow images to make you jealous or make you think “I wish I was like them”. This applies to men too with images of jacked guys with epic bodies, focus on your goals, don’t focus on other’s achievements only yours.

Sometimes I find myself cheating out my workout when it comes to the end, so when I saw this article, I knew I had to share it with you! So check out this list of 23 Ways To Push Through A Tough Workout:
1. Who’s really getting cheated?
Sure, no one else would know about skipping out on the last Chatarunga. But only one person loses in that situation (hint: it’s not the super-ripped chick sweating it out on the next mat).
2. Change pace.
Circuit training, a killer combination of cardio and strength training, can help break the monotony of a long workout. Run five minutes, then drop and do some push-ups. Wash, rinse, repeat.
3. Picture this.
Visualize cheering fans or crossing the finish line to bang out one more set or lap. Or just go mental: Imagine this workout is the equivalent of the Olympic trials (no big deal).
4. Grab a pal. 
Work out with a fit pal who will hold you to a higher standard. Stuck going solo today? Imagine they’re still there. After all, who wants to wuss out in front of an audience?
5. Break it down.
Set mini-goals when the going gets tough. This isn’t a three-mile run— just six measly half-mile runs.
6. Savor the pain.
“Pain is weakness leaving the body,” the saying goes. Pain is also proof that this workout is tough. Clearly you’re doing something right, so why stop now? (Just know when pain is signaling something more serious.)
7. Compete.
Whether comparing against the dude on the next treadmill over or your own time last training session, competition ups the ante and helps us forget about wanting to quit.
8. Remember the end.
That post-workout high? Yeah, almost there. The struggle of that final set won’t last— and when the workout’s over, it’ll be replaced by a much better feeling: pride.

Your mind can push your body past its physical limits!

These are amazing

Why should women consider weightlifting?

barbelltherapy:

  • Weightlifting does not cause a lot of hypertrophy
  • Improved metabolism
  • Being stronger where it counts
  • Mental clarity
  • Everyday activities become easier
  • Confidence boost
  • ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS
  • Great stress reliever
  • Become stronger than 70% of the male population
  • Feel alpha as fuck
  • Increase the chance of beating your boyfriend in wrestling
  • Other reasons I can’t think of.
  • Plus it’s just fucking sexy.

And this is from a guy’s perspective.
