Big's right. I was in the Davis Bike Club and we trained 6 days
a week. The biggest legs of all were had by the girls... wow,
talk about tree trunks, yet they weren't unattractive. :) I never
new why that was. The guys that trained a lot were certainly
stronger yet the legs were smaller. Anyone know why?
I remember when I discovered that I had huge leg muscles, about
six months after I'd started serious training. I was drying my
legs after a shower, flexed something and this large lump pops
up with a correspondingly large crater next to it. At first I
was a little shocked and then it sunk in that the exercise had
had its effect. one of life's entertainingly memorable moments.
