Weight Training...
If you want to lose fat or change your body, one of the most important things you can do is lift weights. Diet and cardio are equally important, but when it comes to changing how your body looks, weight training wins hands down.
If you've hesitated to start a strength training program, it may motivate you to know that lifting weights can:
- Help raise your metabolism.
- Muscle burns more calories than fat, so the more muscle you have, the more calories you'll burn.
- Strengthen bones, especially important for women.
- Make you stronger and increase muscular endurance.
- Help you avoid injuries.
- Increase your confidence and self-esteem.
- Improve coordination and balance.
Getting started with strength training can be confusing, what exercises should you do? How many sets and reps? How much weight? We have experts on hand to help you design a workout program to help you attain your fitness goals.
