@cathslifts: I used to avoid upper body completely because I was already top heavy. I only trained lower, thinking it would “balance me out,” but it just held me back. I couldn’t progress my leg days because my upper body wasn’t strong enough to support the weight. Now I train upper consistently. My shoulders are still broad, but my back looks more defined than ever, and I’m lifting heavier across everything- RDL at 90kg, almost 2x my bodyweight. If you’ve been avoiding upper, take this as your sign. #gym #GymTok #fyp #upper #gymgirl
