Nope Bama.Absolutely wrong.If you do put more weights on the machine you will bulk up.There is a difference between a person that wants a muscular look than a person that wants to firm up the sags and and tighten it up.YOU use less weights when you have a SAGGING problem because this is still a form of exercising.You burn more calories that way when you do more reps with less weights and plus you are toning and firming.If you do the opposite by adding more weights and less reps your body is and will bulk.This sort of training are for people that are trying to get a muscular looking body and does not have weight to loose.You have to (in so many words) cut the fat to tone up and then once you get down to the size that you want to it is then your choice if you want to ADD more weights to get that muscular look.Not looking like a man but some women work out as to where you can see there muscle tone.Where it looks good on them.It is hard to explain.I use to think like you,But I had to get educated and I work with a personal trainer plus talk to other ladies at the spa that have went through the same exact thing.You have to talk to more people in person that have went through this and get with a trainer that is willing to work with you in order to understand.Anytime it is working for me and also 5 women that I know personally that was going through the same thing and look SUPER now.Than trust me what I am telling you is the gospel.If you do the reverse with sagging skin you will bulk up under the fat rather than you BURNING it off using light weights and more reps.You do not start off using heavy weights because you can and will hurt yourself because your body is not use to it.Weights are used for many different reasons but you have to know how to use them and it is according to what goal that you are accomplishing.I was speaking with one of the ladies at the spa that has two sisters that had the gastric surgery.One sister was over 300lbs when she had hers done.When she was able to exercise she started off doing cardio slowly.Than as the weight starting comming off that was when she had a trainer to work with her doing both weight training/cardio and now she is 145lbs! and looks super.The other sister was 400lbs she did not exercise or weight train at all and now she weighs 160 lbs but her skin has sagged so bad until she has to fold all of her skin up in her clothes.Now she has to have $20,000 worth of surgery done because she did not exercise and light weight train to keep it from sagging.Now her sister is miserable.Yes she has lost the weight but just has very lose meat hanging off of her.I feel sorry for her.Now her husband has been trying for the past two years to save up the money because it is TOO far gone to tone.You picture when you have to fold your skin up all over your body to get into your clothes. .There is another lady that weighs 144lbs and wears a size 5/6 and she looks good.She went through the same thing.Trust me anytime it has worked for these ladies and it is working for me I would not have posted in such long details because when we are at that obese stage than we must light weight train to prevent it from sagging as we lose.Once you have reached your goal you can continue to start adding more weights if you want to look a little more chisled without looking like a bodybuilder.But just looking more cut.I hope that I have explained it more better.
