She wouldn't have to. Most people assume that when you start lifting really heavy weight people just start to look like a brick tit house and a mountain of muscle, but it's not the case for most people without either training specifically for hypertrophy or taking steroids. You'll end up muscular, don't get me wrong, but the freakishly large bodybuilder type physique requires a pretty specific combination of training and genetics to accomplish.

I know a lot of women who look fit but not huge, and are strong as hell, including one who's maybe 5'2" and 120-ish lbs. if she's not cutting weight for a powerlifting competition and her max deadlift is up to about 360 lbs. last I heard.

Probably the best part for this particular girl in the story is that assuming she keeps at it and doesn't have any career ending injuries later in life, she won't hit her peak for another 20-30 years.
