Get Bulky

While running Snatch Magazine, an independently published zine for women in weightlifting and strength sports, I kept seeing articles and messaging that said things along the lines of “Don’t worry ladies! Strength training won’t make you bulky.” In my personal life I really started to question that messaging, especially as someone who was… pretty bulky. In response, I came up with the expression “Bulky is Not the Worst Thing A Woman Can Be,” that later evolved into the “Get Bulky” campaign, encouraging women to embrace their bodies and let them be bulky!
