We see many clients who were lucky in the gene department and sailed through their 20s without exercise. A decade later and perhaps a couple of kids many of these clients mostly female hit the gym with a focus on cardio and yo-yo dieting.
Cardio which works your heart is an integral part of a fitness program and can be effective in fighting fat. Yet, this combination has its limits and this focus leaves out a key method of fat burning - your muscles.
Many women consider building muscles men's work. Weight training will not turn you into a female Popeye! Fat is what bulks you up, weight training will tone you.
Muscle strength is important for both sexes. Your muscles atrophy as you age. Studies have proven that weight training can increase muscle strength, speed up your metabolism, enhance your overall health, protect against injuries, improve bone density and help you lose pounds.
In fact studies have proven that weight training can boost your metabolism up to 15 percent.
I like to share my own personal experience with my clients. I was scrawny before I started weight training. Weight training has made me stronger, leaner and toned.

The trends have come and gone but the proven value of weight training is here to stay. Weight training challenges your muscles. Cardio challenges your heart. An optimal fitness plan uses a combination of both methods.
