Do you even lift ? if not why not
GET OFF the treadmill !! Slow Cardio Is Making You Fatter And Weaker
Let’s say you run for an hour on the treadmill and burn 300 calories. That’s less than one “healthy” muffin at Starbucks. Run for just 11 more hours, and you’ll burn a pound of fat!
On top of the minimum calorie burning that takes place during that long, slow, and boring cardio session, you can also bet that your body used some of your lean muscle for energy
The less lean muscle you have on your body, the more fat your body will store, and the harder it will be to lose weight, or even maintain a weight you’re happy with.
And to make it worse – your fat loss hormones are virtually unaffected by traditional cardio. You’ll experience no prolonged metabolic effect, which means, the minimal calorie burning you spent so much time on stops shortly after you step off the treadmill.
You’ll end up slaving away for the bare minimum of results.
Do you even lift ? if not why not ?
You’ll Burn A Lot More Fat In one study on over 700 females, lifting weights for just 25 minutes three times per week led to the gain of nearly two pounds of muscle, and the loss of four pounds of fat. If you’re familiar with how physiques work, then you know that is a radical change in appearance. but not how you think..
Now, picking up heavy things burns a respectable amount of calories on it’s own. No doubt about that. But that’s not why lifting weights is so effective for burning fat.
When you lift something heavy, you’re setting your body up for metabolic reactions that allow you to utilize nutrients better (like ice-cream), and continue burning calories for UP TO 36 hours your workout.
There’s this thing called your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). It controls how many calories your body burns while you rest. As you gain more muscle, you increase your BMR, along with how much you can eat and still stay lean.
The more lean muscle on your body, the less body fat you will store, and the harder it will be to gain weight.
You Wont Know What To Do With Your Free Time !
All you need is a 30-60 minute lifting session about three times a week to start seeing great results in as little as two weeks.
I like to reinforce this efficiency mindset with all of my clients
Get In...Work Hard....Get Out...Simple
You’ll have more time to spend with your favorite people, and to do your favorite things.
You’ll Get Stronger And Feel Awesome !
Studies show that moderate weight training can more than double a woman’s strength. I’ve had a female trainee get 400% stronger in about 30 days. When we started, she could barely do two push ups, less than a month later, she was banging out sets of eight push ups. It was awesome.
When you’re stronger, daily tasks like groceries, lifting children, and pushing that creep at the club off of you become much easier, and enjoyable.
And along with the sense of pride that comes with finishing a challenging workout and beating a personal record (it’s super easy to track your progress with weights), your body will reward you with a dose of euphoric chemicals called endorphins. These affect us like powerful drugs, but without the nasty side effects. I’m sure you’ve heard about the runner’s high, but have you ever tried the lifter’s high? It’s much easier and faster to achieve. The more intense your workout, the higher you’ll get.
You Will Not Get Big Or Bulk yAt this point you’re probably thinking everything sounds amazing, but have this little voice in your head telling you that you’re going to get big or bulky...NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOO!!!! it wont happen..unless you are taking things your not telling me about to enhance your training..
I hear this way too many times. It’s simply a mis-belief that is holding you back from seeing results you love in a short period of time. Unless, of course, you’re training like a monster, consuming a massive amount of calories, and injecting yourself with synthetic hormones.
Let me break it down for you. Hormones, such as testosterone, are responsible for muscle growth. Women have anywhere from 10-30 times less testosterone than men...so dont fret or worry..just lift
Simply lifting something heavy does not mean you’re going to build muscles overnight. Hell, even guys that are doing everything in their power to build muscle are struggling!
You Will Develop Nice Assets The gluteus maximus is one of the strongest muscles in your body. The shape of your glutes are influenced by muscular development...Who doesnt want nice buns these days.. not a flobby saggy one..
When it comes to building size in your glutes, there is no substitute for a deep, heavy squat. This will also help rid you of cellulite, while “firming” and “toning” your legs in the process. You’ll also strengthen your lower back and help prevent back injuries that are all too common as we age.
There is nothing more enchanting than seeing a woman commanding a respectable amount of weight at the gym. It’s effective. It’s empowering. It’s dang sexy! Don’t be afraid to give it a go.
All of us have goals. Goals like losing weight, earning more money, finding a life partner, setting up our business, achieving performance targets, being fitter, building better relationships, and so on...one life live it well
