Women Weight Training Exercise and Workout!

By: Ashley Green



Weight training has a lot to say for itself and should be
adopted as a part of one's daily life, at home and while working
around the house. Weight bearing exercises not only retain
muscular strength but also delay the loss of muscle mass and
bone density as well.

 . Biceps Curls: Stand with feet apart. Carry dumbbells
or two water bottles(one in each hand). Flex the elbow, lift the
water bottle or dumbbell towards the shoulder and bring it back
to the starting point without locking the elbow. Exhale as you
take the arm up and inhale when you bring the arm down. Repeat
it 16-24 times. This exercise will strengthen the muscles of the
arm.

 

 . Shoulder Press: Standing in the same position, take
both arms overhead taking the weights towards the ceiling. Bring
the arms back to the shoulder level. Repeat it 16-24 times. This
exercise will strengthen the shoulders.

 

 . Squats: Standing in the same position, place the water
bottle or dumbbell on the shoulder. Lower the hips toward the
floor making sure that the hips are pushed back, like you are
trying to sit on a chair. Repeat it 16-24 times. This exercise
will strengthen all the muscles in the lower body.

 

Random Tip: Weight train at home using stability ball is
an effective and cheap way to exercise. 



 Muscular soreness port-exercises is the bane of some of the
women. Women just hate to be sore the day after a workout.
Weight Training effects muscles in a positive way but it does
result in DOMS or a delayed onset of muscular soreness. this is
a natural physiological response to weight training and goes
away the day after.

strength as does the density of bones.

 Post menopausal women get tired very fast and cant cope
with day-to-day activities as easily as they could in younger
years. These women are also plagued with inexplicable pain in
the joints or the back. Weight bearing exercises are a boon for
women of this age.

 

Random Fact: Weight training helps in more ways than one.
It makes you stronger and slimmer without making you look like a
wrestler.
