Most women don't want to lift weights because they think it will make them bulky or masculine looking...but that's not the case....
When you lift weights it increases your strength, lose in body fat, reduce in health risks and it improves your attitude.
Why it doesn't bulk you up: Because women do not have enough hormone testosterone to get big muscles. By adding more lean muscle to your body you will lose inches instead of bulk up. =)
Did you know!?!?!?!?!
Every added pound of lean muscle, through strength training , burns an additional 30 to 50 calories each day!
Remember Ladies and even gents who read this blog... What is good for the body benefits the mind. ;)
