The Fit Bride Bible

Ask a woman to start weight training and the next thing she visualizes in her mind is her face on the body of Arnold Schwarzenneger. 😅  Funny but truueeeee. Most women won't touch anything heavier than 2kg dumbbells even if their life depends on it because they don't want to look "manly". This idea that lifting weights make you look manly has been perpetuated for so long that it seems to be the truth but is it really? No it's not! On its own, lifting weights will not make a woman "manly" and neither will it make a man more "manly" either. Weight lifting is not that powerful trust me. If you want toned arms like Michelle Obama's or thighs like Serena's, then not only do you have to eat a certain way, you also need to combine this with the right lifting protocol.

One of the things I find fascinating about shopping for wedding dresses is how many different styles of wedding dresses there are. Apart from this, there are different necklines, sleeve lengths, dress lengths etc and it can be a bit overwhelming! But... it does not have to be so. If you are looking to enjoy your wedding dress shopping experience, it is a good idea to prepare for it. Start by figuring out (or having someone assess) what your body shape is. Then determine what your style personality is and then aim to highlight those parts of your body that are flattering and most attractive. This will help you pick a wedding dress that suits your shape and personality and flatters your figure.  Everyone has their dream wedding dress and it is okay to want to get married in a dress you have been dreaming about all your life. But if the dress does not work for your shape or personality, it is also okay to change your mind and get married in a dress that is more suited to who yo...
