“Usiende gym for show-off” – Sauti Sol’s Bien educates women on lifting weights, praises his wife’s fitness
Sauti Sol’s Bien-Aime Baraza has shared some words of wisdom for women who wants to lose weight and be fit.
The singer is pleading with ladies to lift weights despite their anxiety over developing muscles.
“There is a narrative that has women afraid of lifting weights, they feel like the weights are very masculine but that’s not the case.
It’s difficult for women to gain muscles as men by lifting weights. The worst they can be from lifting weights is having a toned body. Now that’s a good thing,” Bien said.

“You can look for something else, you can pick a spot like I have just gone back to playing basketball that I hadn’t for years. Now I do that on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Just pick something that ignites your fire.”
He continued saying:
“My wife is a dancer, she wakes up in the morning and dances for an hour. I can’t finish Chiki’s (Chiki Kuruka) workout by the time I clock 40 minutes into her workouts, I just want to quit.
I’m not sure I like her classes. She is the fittest human being I know because she is committed to that kind of workout and is consistent.”
Bien also cautioned against the propensity for people to exercise merely for social media attention.
“I don’t think working out should be for aesthetics, do it for you, to improve your well-being as a person.
