Get her in to stretching and training for splits. It'll show her how weak her (stabilizer) muscles are and a clear path to getting better.

Also, thick is where it is. More testosterone boosts her sensations, libido, and orgasms.

Terry Crews, on just 3 types of exercise to do if nothing else, says squats, power cleans, pullups (for overall mass).

Look at this, OP.

Women would like to do legs a lot, they'll enjoy it. Same as cardio. Stick some upper-body routines to her as well, she'll need them to look well
>>
>>35539503
I've seen SS get criticized for being too leg-heavy. Would it be good for women then?
>>
>>35539161
If her goal is to look good (toned, whatever) then she should train like a competitive sprinter. Lifting for strength and power, and HIIT on a sustainable progression. She'll start to look like the hottest female athletes, feel better, and be fitter.

No
Just no

SS is a meme, don't fall for it

Increasing calorie output has more potential than reducing intake for ordinary cases. More muscle and flexibility is better circulation and a better metabolism, but you can't always get full nutrition with limited calories.
>>
>>35539364
just wondering.
My stabilizers are also complete shit.
how do I improve my core ?
>>
>>35541151
Squats, especially front-side versions
>>
>>35541151
>>35541164
and power cleans, obvs.
>>
>>35540373
So what should beginners do instead? I don't even know what is a meme and what isn't anymore
>>
>>35541164
i hate squats,
I'm not sure if I even can do front squats without falling over.

I'm inflexible as fuck, and need plates under my feet for normal back squats.
>>
>>35541304
For stabilizers and flexibility, I do wall stretches and back-supported butterflies (no flap), making sure to feel them all through the whole leg and especially not knees.. keeping that knee cap unflexed, same for squats.

Put her on SS and tell her to drink a gallon of milk and eat at least 5000 calories a day.

5x5 is fine for a woman, what makes you think they are so different?
if anything women need to train strength because they're weak af

>>35539161
There are no 'women's exercises', there is either TRAIN or NOT TRAIN. Have her read the goddamn sticky.

>if anything women need to train strength because they're weak af
This. Women are fucking pathetic naturally, and then even moreso because they never put any effort into lifting. Then they lose muscle when they get older, and by the time she hits 40 she's just pathetic and frail
>>

>>35543224
I never understood why this is a meme
Toning is getting swole but to a lesser extent. More muscle, less bf gives your body nicer curves and shape. It's entirely possible.
>>
>>35544440
Because most girls can't accept that they need to lift somewhat heavy to get the "toned" look they're seeking. They think they'll become Arnold if they do, so they end up not lifting and just doing.. whatever it is they do.

Make her do SS and have her eat at a slight surplus. Have her do cardio too.
>>
>>35540373
Is SS a meme, or is "SS is a meme" a meme?
>>
>>35545151

SS isn't a meme, the retards that spout this are weak amd don't understand the progression.
