    It’s almost like cultural factors discourage most women from growing muscle, but encourages men to gain muscles

      I would say the women in my class are incredibly strong. They have excellent muscle development, and compared to non fitness folk, are almost intimidating.

      But, by and large, they’re not as strong as the men in the class for raw power.
