Something about the picture of Missy with the kettle bell, on the first post, has always bothered me and I just figured out why.
It's her hairline. It's so high for someone her age and makes her look almost mannish. I am way older than she and when I pull my hair straight back and look in the mirror, mine is not nearly that high. And I don't take hormone replacements or anything else that would affect it.
In addition:
Some years ago I set out to get "pipes" like Missy's and no matter how much I worked out and how much stronger I got, I never looked like that. When I expressed my admiration to someone who had the arms I wished for, she reminded me that genetics has a lot to do with results and said that in fact few women have the genes to attain arms like hers.
So now I'm wondering if there might be a steroid angle to the case?
I apologize if this has already been discussed but I can't keep up with the fast-moving threads.
Gosh, I hope this isn't seen as victim blaming or bashing.. I'm going to alert on my own post just in case.
