After two months, straight with fitness and weight lifting classes, I can feel the difference with my body. Every woman wants to feel comfortable and happy with her body and health, this can be achieved with weight lifting, Yes! As I said - Weight lifting.
Woman should change the misconception about weight lifting and stop harshen herself with cardio exercises.
Pumping iron two to three times a week will not only transform your body shape, it will also improve your health.
Trust me, I’m practicing it two months straight at SLR Gym with the pump class and I’m feeling great. I can amazingly tell the difference with my body. I feel strong, motivated, and happy with every time I hit the class. The atmosphere is very friendly and it’s always fun.
The benefits of strength training can last hours after a workout and can boost your mood all day. Let’s have a look about the impressive benefits you’ll get:
1- LOSING BODY FAT & BURNING MORE CALORIES
Weight training builds muscle, as lean muscle increases so does metabolism. A higher metabolism means that you will burn more calories all day long. The more intense the workout the more calories are burned.
2- GAINING STRENGTH WITHOUT BULKING
Don’t be afraid! Weight training won’t bulk. Women have 10 to 30 times less testosterone than men and have a much harder time gaining size from strength training. You will feel stronger and toned without a bigger size of your muscles.
3- DECREASING RISK OF OSTEOPOROSIS & INJURIES
Weight training not only strengthens muscles; it strengthens your bones.
It increases bone density, which reduces the risk of fractures and broken bones. Strengthening muscles and connective tissue will make injury from daily tasks and routine exercise less likely, and can even improve sports performance.
4- IMPROVING POSTURE AND REDUCING BACK PAIN
Weight-training will strengthen your back, shoulders, and core, helping to correct bad posture so that you can stand taller, with shoulders back and spine straight. A stronger back and core will also prevent lower back pain. Make sure to stay focus and follow your instructor with every step and remark he/she gives you in order not to make a wrong move.
5- ENHANCING MOOD & REDUCING STRESS
Exercise and weight-training release endorphins. Endorphins are neurotransmitters that prevent pain, improve mood, and fight depression. An increased in endorphins naturally reduces stress and anxiety.
Keep in mind that weight training is not only a way to get a nice body shape, it’s a lifestyle you choose to yourself to improve your health, your mind and body.
I advise you to start lifting today! You will be thankful as I am every day.
