Simple Strength Training for Women

Most people would say that strength training for women is a no-no. They are quite wrong. The benefits can leave all women with very toned feminine bodies and added confidence from the power they will possess. Simple strength training for women is definitely a lifestyle all women should try.


The first thing that needs to be done is getting a membership at a local gym. Variety is the spice of life and the same thing applies to getting in strength training. Don’t be intimidated by the other people that are “skinny” or good shape. You are there to improve yourself and that’s nothing to be ashamed of.

Major Muscle Groups


-Chest
-Back
-Legs(thighs, butt)
-Core(Abs)


Minor Muscle Groups


-Shoulders
-Arms
-Calves


Since strength training is hard on the body, you need to determine where you get the most bang for your buck. In this case you always want to start doing your major muscle groups. This allows you to work more muscles and eventually burn more calories this way. To add to that, you usually have to use your minor muscles to do your major muscle groups. Don’t waste your time doing tricep exercises, when you could be doing bench press.


Last part of this whole process is breaking it all up. You can’t goto the gym everyday and work the same muscle groups. Your body needs time to repair and this can take days. What you’ll want to do is break it up into sections that focus on major muscle groups and minor muscle groups.

For example:


-Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
-Back and Biceps
-Legs and Calves


This is more than enough information for proper strength training for women. Just keep doing this on a regular basis and always switch it up, and you’ll have great results.
