			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-646" title="gym_weights" src="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/gym_weights.jpg" alt="gym_weights" width="179" height="300" />There is a common myth out there in the fitness world, running particularly rampant with women. That myth is: lifting heavy weights will bulk you up. This is simply not true. One only need to look at Chalene Johnson and some of the subjects from the <a href="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/chalean-extreme-products/chalean-extreme.php">ChaLEAN Extreme </a>test group to know that lifting heavy will slim you down, decrease your overall size, but leave you with sculpted, defined muscles. It&#8217;s time the lifting heavy myth was shattered and when you embark on the ChaLEAN Extreme program, you can be the person to do that shattering. </p>
<p>In the <a href="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/chalean-extreme-products/chalean-extreme.php">ChaLEAN Extreme </a>program you are encouraged to lift heavy weights. You want to choose weights that allow your muscles to reach failure in 10-12 reps (in the burn phase), and 6-8 reps (in the Push Phase). This means the weights you use are probably heavier than you are accustomed to. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">The reason for heavier weights is not bigger size but bigger results.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<h3>Lifting Heavy Does Not Make You Bulky!</h3>
<p> </p>
<p>Ladies, it&#8217;s time you let go of this common misconception. If you believed in the past that heavy weights meant bulky, masculine muscles, you were probably lifting sets of 15-20 reps, seeking &#8220;long lean&#8221; muscles. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Reality check: women don&#8217;t have the same chemical makeup as men</span> and we will not look any more masculine for lifting heavy. Check out the ladies in <a href="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/chalean-extreme-products/chalean-extreme.php">ChaLEAN Extreme </a>or the photos in the guidebook of the test group. These ladies have transformed their bodies into athletic, but feminine forms. They are all smaller than they were before beginning the program, not bigger!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/chalean-extreme-products/chalean-extreme.php">ChaLEAN Extreme</a> will help you lift heavy to lose fat. Losing fat is why the majority of people will buy this program. They want to reveal the muscle definition they have under the layers of flab and this is the perfect program to do that. As you build definition, your metabolism kicks into high gear, burning more fat every day, even while you are at rest.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Men and women alike will see dramatic fat loss if they follow the <a href="http://www.extremebodyworkout.com/chalean-extreme-products/chalean-extreme.php">ChaLEAN Extreme </a>plan. Women will uncover a sleek, defined, and muscular physique. Men will lose the fat around their middles and chisel out the chest, arms, back, and entire body of their dreams.</p>
<p> </p>
<h3>Lifting heavy does not make you bigger, lifting heavy makes you better!</h3>
