Hello to all the ladies out there. A lot of women and this includes my wife ask me, why strength train? Most women who workout regularly do a lot of aerobics and cardio which is great, but here is a great article that explains why STRENGTH training is important for women. My wife actually found the article and wanted me to post it for all the women on the board. Hope you all like it!

Mathias

Hi Mathias!

Tell your wife good job!!! I couldn't agree more the article!  I've always been known as the cardio queen and I can honestly tell you in all of my 42 years experience, LOL, I noticed the biggest and best changes in my body when I incorporated consistent weight training with my  cardio.  Cardio will only give you a smaller version of yourself.......it is the weight training that is going to give you the awesome curves, definition and shape.  Not to mention as we age we lose muscle mass...............I'm going to fight it every step of the way and God willing I hope to be curling my DB's and doing my DB lunges into my 80's!   .

Glad you liked the article Kristen!

 

It is funny, I have always told my wife she needs to do some strength training, but she never really listens about that. Now she sees it from another source and, she didn't like to admit I was right! LOL.

 

Take care, Mathias

Thanks for the article.  Again - I love to hear this to reaffirm what I strongly believe.  I can't tell you how many times I hear women say (including some family members) that they need to do the cardio to get rid of the fat first before they start using weights, so they don't get "big" muscles while trying to loose weight.  But then many of the women get a shocked look on their face when they ask what I do to stay in shape and I tell them - "weights!"

Hey Sue,

 

Glad you liked it, as much as I would like to take the credit on this one, I have to give my wife propts for finding the article and passing it on to me to share with all of you. It is always great to, like you said reafirm that what we are doing is worth the pain that we go through.

 

Take care and LIVE STRONG!

 

Mathias

Another reason to strength train is muscle gives the body shape.  The "shape" most women want have shapley arms, legs, shoulders and abs and the only way to get that "shape" is to hit the weights :-)
