They are slightly smaller than to men's when we think about sex differences.
Upper bodies are more great.
Yes.
Then that doesn't I mean Yeah, so there seems to be a bigger gap and disparity in the upper body strength between men and women than lower body strength.
But also then in the studies that show like women
gain just as much muscle as men, like they'll actually gain more relative upper body strength.
But I also just think that's because women typically are under training before you go into those studies.
So they're gaining more because they don't have that same training baseline going into it.
But when I think about training in general for women, like yes, I want women to train upper body, back, chest, shoulders, like it's important to train your whole body.
Um
I think it's important, but like if a woman ever bench pressed in her entire life, she's probably gonna be fine.
But if she's not loading her hips and spine, I'm more worried about her.
That would be hips and spine work.
Okay.
And I and one, there's more muscle in the lower body, but two.
We start to see more of that bone mineral density loss.
Like if you go and get a DEXA for bone density to test to see what you're t you're you're at, they're gonna do a hip and spine DEXA.
They're gonna look at the greater trochanter and your hip there and then your your lower vertebrae, because that's where more of that density loss.
That doesn't mean you can't have density loss across your body.
Um, athletic populations of women get stress fractures all over.
