    <body><![CDATA[Love it! Love it! Love it! I do have the tendency of being one of those &quot;did you know&quot; people after I read a good book. This book makes me want to march over to every woman holding 2.5 pound weights and shake them silly. I'm two weeks into the program and am sold. I felt a good soreness that I hadn't felt since I started lifting. I also had the confidence to walk into a male dominated gym, rack up the squat bar, and do what I needed to do. The author's tone is perfect. He's light without being silly, serious when he needs to be and detailed enough to convince me he's right. Amusingly, the day after I read the book, someone at my gym made a comment about women needing to do lighter weights and more reps. I debated pulling the book out and waving his response to that very statement in her face, but thought that might be rude. But hey, if it got violent, I think I could have taken her with one strong punch, while she could have swatted at me repeatedly. I highly recommond the book to anyone woman interested in building muscle.]]></body>
