An article by reknowned fitness expert Michael Boyle definitely struck a chord with me today. Its regarding something we all in the gym world heard so many times over and over....and OVER again, "I don't want to get too bulky, I just wanna tone my body." Heck, most of my friend's lovely female partners don't seem to keen on having their boyfriends look like Arnold, or even American football players for that matter. Well who can blame them since majority of the fitness media associate bodybuilding and fitness with a large jock-man dressed in a small, tight thong proudly brandishing the outline of his crotch.
People seem to think that working out vigorously with a change in nutrition equates to an instantaneous transformation into the incredible hulk. In fact, as Michael Boyle pointed out, nothing could be further from the truth. Have a read of his article at coreperformance.com:

Uh huh, I actually thought you were buffed up like Arnold now :o
Actually toning up is what preferred by many gym goer and its getting norm because a lot of them knew that it is hard to bulk up and it requires a lot of sacrifice in order to get there such as time, planning, dedication and discipline needed to train in that regime.
Due to this factor, many have misconception about bulking up. In fact, body building is a working processs to perfection and discipline. Body building is a working towards an art.
But still the funny part is that alot of girls and guys still admire deep down in their hearts if they see body builder passing by.
