Lumpy Women

I have observed the phenomena of lumpy women and realized that they are lumpy for the reason that they have become burly - and because the tendons in their arms were not intended to develop they form lumps rather than muscles. From the point of view of a fencer and an athlete I think female fencers in particular should be aware of this and avoid incorrect development of arm muscles by concentrating on point control which reduces the lumpy phenomena and creates a better all around fencer. Sorry if this sounds critical, but I just had to say this. I noticed that this phenomena has increased sharply as we have become involved in an international conflict. That burliness is directly proportional to warfare in America.

That's what your post seems to boil down to.

I'm going to take this as a serious thread?

Lumpy women as compared to....lumpy men? Are you saying women in general don't learn as well as men do? wotwot? There is nothing wrong with a "burly" woman. In fact, a lot of how muscles develop depends on genes, and if this said "burliness" is that apparent, chances are, it's part of how each woman's body is developing and adapting to the demands of the sport. Are you saying Marion Jones, or a fencer with just Marion Jones' wonderfully toned and sculpted arms are lumps of....incorrectness, and not hard-won muscles? You make muscular women sound as something negative.
That being said, have you watched every female fencer with said incorrect execution of techniques on a continual basis?
It may be true the women you have observed to deduce and say such a statement do have incorrect technique, and may be developing muscles so they don't eventually create a balanced and good fencer, but are you sure you are not confusing that with...say, if said female fencers were to work really hard anyway, they could still become muscular? Point control, will develop muscles, just not as obviously as you would see to make such a judgement.
Women were made to have muscles, usually, not as quickly as men because 99% of women born don't have the genes to have accelerated cross-sectional muscle development like men, do. Women in general have to work at least twice as hard to get the same amount of muscle mass as men, do. Oh, evolution.

Okay - bunchy muscles

It's not intended to be personal it just means that women fencers shouldn't concentrate their power behind the wrong muscle groups - when you look at the top women fencers,they still keep smooth muscles - they don't bunch. Forget it though it doesn't matter really.

Personally I think they're not extending their arms enough - incomplete extension. That's why coaches are forever yelling "Keep your arm out there!" It's for that.

How does attempting to give work out advice make someone a chauvenist pig? I didn't even see him comparing men to women, or even mentioning anything about men at all.

Okay - sorry about the Lumpy remarks

Sorry about the remarks, some lumpy one gave me a difficult time yesterday and I just had to post it or had a lumpy fit. Speaking of lumps, I went for a screening and the girls said I should come back for further screening because they 'detected a lump', I took one look at them and realized that they didn't know what they were talking about and went home and forgot them five years ago. Guess what.....no lump.

I too find it a bit more than ambiguous. Does anyone know what it means? Is it perhaps American slang?

Chunky women, a little fat on them, so extra muscles develop to deal with that, and it ends up making them chunkier, and chunkier, until they get thrown in Campbell's Chunky soup and are eaten by Ricky William's Mom. And big bones are often involved. They're good for flavoring in soups and stews. What was I talking about?

No problem; if they get too big, they can just go on the bottom.

Well take your lumps. They're always looking for an arguement have you ever seen a female fistfight. . It looks so cool. Whatever gave anyone the idea that we needed a bunch of lumpy women to walk around wearing chains to protect the world is crazy. I don't need anyone to 'help' me out with anything. I don't want some jerk following me around like last night some awful woman followed me and started to ask me about my personal life, and where I worked. I finally had to tell her that I was not interested in answering personal questions. Why would anyone put themselves in that awkward position in the first place.

Thank you, being agreed with for once is a miracle. Isnt' that terrible. Do you see what it took to have someone agree with me on one stupid topic. I didn't really expect support on this [badum dum].

Actually it was terrible of me to write about lumpy women, but you know, [she said conversationally], I had a fencing instructor who criticized me appearance nearly every time I saw him. It was unreal. As it turned out, I had precancerous tumors and I had abdominal surgery. And since I am the weight I am supposed to be, I found it difficult to stay loyal to his group.

Strangely [as my surgeon stated], while I was in her office post-op - "you know, you're really a skinny little thing, all of your weight was carried in your precancerous fibroid". It was weird [I had to agree] that about a month after surgery, my entire shape changed.

But, pulling back the arm during an attack will lead to bunchy muscles, however, pulling back the arm when you know your attack is bad, is probably a good idea.
