In the same vein (but healthier!) as diet plans that mix up your caloric goals, here’s a 7-day plan that gets harder as it goes along. Start on Day One, follow the plan for a week, then repeat. Yes, it’ll seem ridiculously easy going from Day Seven back to Day One, but this will keep your body challenged and will give you a bit of a break every time you restart. Feel free to make this an eight-day plan and add in a rest day on Day Eight.

I am a female, if I start lifting weights will I get huge?
Maybe, if you take heaping amounts of steroids, eat 8,000 calories a day, and proceed to lift for at least 5 years. Otherwise, no. Weightlifting will not make the average woman bulky. You may however find yourself with a nicer butt, shapelier legs, less body fat, a higher metabolism, strength, confidence, and a positive outlook. Proceed with caution. Don’t believe us? How many of your skinny male friends do you think have tried to get muscled up? And how successful were they? Do you think they — motivated as they were — would fail while trying extremely hard, while you would accidentally succeed? No, that would not occur. This is because it is dedicated, long term effort to become muscularly huge.
Also look at this article for information on how women should train. The Female Fitness Bible is also a good read.
This blog is full of examples of women who lift weights and aren’t huge. This video shows you a female olympic weightlifter. As you can see, she doesn’t appear ‘bulky’, but is still extremely strong.
