Why men AND woman should train with weights

A common miss conception with woman is that if they train with weights they will become bulky and they think that they should only do cardio, while cardio is important, weight training is good for woman because you will lose body fat as your lean muscle mass increases so does your metabolism which means that you will burn calories all day long (even while sleeping).

Unlike men woman typically wont gain size from strength training because woman have 10 to 30 times less testosterone in their bodies which causes muscle hypertrophy, woman will however get muscle tone and definition because of the increase in burnt calories.

Other benefits from weight training is a decreased risk in osteoporosis, injury, back pain, diabetes, heart disease and arthritis. you will also increase your physical strength and improve your athletic performance.
