  • Summary

  • Summary: This is part two of our series, so catch the first episode if you missed it! Today, I'm busting the myth that you can build "lean" or "bulky" muscle—you’re either building, losing, or maintaining. I'll share a time when we had to dial back weight training for a client prepping for a competition. Plus, we’ll chat about why you might need to target specific body parts and why the idea that women should lift less just won’t go away. Key Takeaways: (00:39) - 2 common myths when building muscle (03:59) - What to do when you notice a specific body part is looking bulkier (04:19) - A client example of how we scaled back their weight training (10:15) - How to know if you’re putting in the right amount of effort with your exercises (11:35) - Do this when you’re having an off day in the gym and you’re just going through the motions (13:40) - Tips for finding the right coach for you Connect with Diane: Website: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dianeflores_ifbb_pro YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dianeflores_ifbb_pro Join the Boss Bitch Besties Fitness Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dianefloresifbbpro Freebies: Plateau-Buster Guide: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/plateau-buster-guide Protein Snack List: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/protein-snack-guide Sleep Hacks: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/sleep-like-a-queen Full Body Training Program: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/full-body-gym-program 5 Easy Tips to Stay Motivated: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/5-easy-tips-to-stay-motivated Fit Girl Gift Guide: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/fit-girl-gift-guide My Favorite Supplements: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/myfavoritesupplements Show Day Packing List: https://www.bossbitchradio.com/show-day-packing-list Work with Diane: Glute Goddess: FREE 7-Day Challenge The Goddess Body Project: 12-Week Transformation Fuel Your Body with the Goods: Try Meal Prep Delivery with FitKitchen Code: Diane10 Try this Energy Shot from Magic Mind - Code: BBRadio Fave Boss Bitch Protein Bars - Built Bars *Use Promo Code: “Diane” at check out Cured Nutrition Code: BossBitch saves 20% off first order Nutrishop Supplement Shop - Code: BossBitch (free shipping) Dress Up & Show Up Like a Boss Bitch: For 15% off your purchase at Toxic Angels Bikinis use Code: Diane Get $10 off Bombshell Sports Wear HERE For 15% off at Pseudo Force Studio Apparel, use Code: BossBitch Salty Savage Fitness Apparel Code: AmandaGlitters
