Chelsea, you won't get muscular like a male if you don't do heavy weights. I did I believe about 40 to 50 pounds for squats by putting a bar on my shoulders with weights and squatting, I did about 30 pounds benching, 15 pounds in each hand curling, etc. etc. and I didn't get bulky, but rather slender but defined. Are you in the states? If so I went to Gold's Gym and did body pump classes, those are good because it combines everything and you go at a fast pace and that's what got me thin but defined. The reason males get bulky is because of the higher levels of testosterone, they use heavier weights and do more reps. They also take things like creatine. For women, even body builders it ALOT harder for us to bulk up. I knew a few female body builders and they work twice as hard as the males. So you don't need to worry lol.
