WEIGHT TRAINING FOR WOMEN??? Huge misunderstandings by many women

Flicking through any strength training, body-building or fitness magazine you are bombarded by huge vascular mammoths of men. You see size that in your life, without the use of thousands of pounds of steroids you will never achieve. Not to say you cannot achieve similar strength through very very hard work and huge size.

 One other thing you see in these magazines is a range of different looking women, some of which are sculpted by these same steroids (anabolic steroids) these manipulate hormones for growth within the body and within a female body it is filled with testosterone because of these steroids this creates huge muscular women, who (lets be honest) sometimes start to look like men! BUT alot of women don't want to look like this and sadly because of the way the industry is going these people are at the forefront of the ads and articles.

 To any woman (and I know women think this!) DO NOT BE PUT OFF WEIGHT TRAINING!!
if you allow this to put you off you are limiting your time and the results you can achieve in the gym. Using weights in the gym can give great results for weight loss, core strength will increase. MORE CALORIES will be burnt in less time than it would using just cardio. You will begin to look great and feel great.

Do not forget our bodies are designed to cope with whatever we throw at it. If you have a routine of ONLY cardio, Imagine the results you can get by throwing intense weight sessions into the mix. Stick with sets of 12 or more for 3 or 4 sets start with 2 exercises per body part. once your body becomes used to this you can throw in as much as 4 or 5 exercises for isolation techniques. I haven't even mentioned compound movements which burn calories and manipulate change in the body like no other. Do not overlook this amazing life changer you will not look back ladies.
