5 Reasons Women Need To lift Weights

“I don’t want to get bulky.” 

“Lifting weights is too difficult.”

“I don’t want to look like a man.”

Have these outdated ideas and workout myths about strength training been keeping you on the treadmill, magazine in hand, for another 30 minutes of mind numbing cardio? 

It’s time to grab a bar and start lifting… here’s 5 reasons why you need to start.

1. Burn Body Fat Faster

If you’ve bought into the myth that cardio is the fastest way to fat loss you’d be incorrect.  By lifting heavier weights you can burn more fat and keep muscle.

2. Look Healthier

You can’t shape muscles but you can build lean muscles and that translates into optimal clothing sizes without cutting calories.

3. Build Healthy Bones

One fear most women have is osteoporosis and the #1 solution to bone building is not calcium supplementation, it’s weight-bearing exercise.  Learn the basics and start squatting your way to stronger bones.

4. Boost Self-Esteem

Strength doesn’t just come in the form of physical. Moving heavy things delivers a power packed shot to your mental fortitude as well. Lifting heavy makes you feel good on all accounts.

5. Spark Your Metabolism

Have you wondered how to keep those calories burning even while you’re asleep? Strength training turns your body into an engine constantly burning fuel day and night. That’s a side effect no amount of cardio can match.

THE BEST PART…

Do it all without getting bulky!

That’s right, the #1 fear stopping women from lifting weights and reaping all the benefits that come along with it, is almost impossible to achieve without overeating, using programs that include massive amounts of repetitions or artificially modifying your hormones.
