“I don’t want to have protein shakes because I don’t want to gain weight or get bulky”

Increasing your protein intake or drinking protein shakes won’t make you gain weight unless you increase your daily calorie intake. A caloric surplus consisting of ANY food will cause weight gain (doesn’t matter whether that comes from fruit, chips, soda, protein powder, vegetables or pizza). So no, protein powder alone will not cause you to gain weight or get bulky. If you are eating at or below your calorie maintenance for the day, you will be fine!
If anything protein powder helps you LOSE fat and gain tone, lean muscle!  

p.s…. this girl (Abbie Burrows) LIFTS WEIGHTS and drinks PROTEIN SHAKES. Does she look like a man? Uhm I think not… She has curves in all the right places thanks to a clean diet, protein and weight lifting! 

I love seeing personal home gyms<3

“LADIES: What burns more fat? Running on the treadmill or 1/2 hr of weights? 
Answer: Running will burn more calories at the moment (perhaps 300 calories for 1/2 hour) but a 1/2 hour of weight training will suck up more calories thoughout the day because the body needs to recover from muscle break down. In addition, the more muscle you have the more your body will metabolize fat and increase your caloric effectiveness.”
