I did ballet for 10 years before I recently quit because I didn't have any time for school. However, I wanted to stay active so I joined my local xfit. I really enjoy everything about it the flexible schedule, the passionate trainers, and the best part the tough workouts. I've been at it for about 3 months now and here comes the problem. I'm used to having a slim dancer body and though I did want to put some muscle on and stay in shape I don't like how my shoulders have noticeably broadened and when I lift my arms up I just don't feel feminine. My thighs are also becoming a bit too muscular. I don't want to stop doing xfit and I don't want to gain more muscle. Is there anybody out there who knows what to do or has been here before? I love to work out and challenge myself but I definitely don't want to look like a man.

You have to decide...maybe do ballet workouts instead?
ReplyI don't know much about how to reduce muscle but I'm an athlete myself. I train 8-9 times a week. It gets really hard with school and stuff. Anyway, in the beginning when i started training intensely, i was really insecure on how i looked. I thought i looked "too masculine". So, i started wearing dresses and skirts instead of pants. I started wearing makeup. I don't even like dresses. I hated wearing makeup. But i still did it. Just because i was afraid i wasn't feminine enough.
Over time, i've started to love my muscular body. I feel strong, powerful, confident and i even like to flaunt them sometimes. They make me different.
Femininity doesn't come from the outside. being a woman means that you're strong and powerful.
You will learn to love your body. If xfit makes you happy, keep doing it.
Much love, a stranger
