$“Lifting weights will make you bulky.” 🙀 That is so far from the truth ❤️ Even though I hear people say they believe that I still tend to see women steer clear of the weight room & head straight to cardio bar 💪 Some key points here: Women don’t have enough testosterone to put on as much muscle as men. (Women have 10 to 30 times less testosterone than men!) Lifting weights is actually better for improving body composition. Lifting weights is better for boosting metabolism. “Your metabolic rate is directly related to your muscle mass and body fat percentage. The more muscle mass you have, the more calories you burn at rest, and the muscle damage that results from strength training also increases metabolism post-workout” (via @chris.rocchio_fit) Weight training not only strengthens muscles, it strengthens your bones. Weight training increases bone density, which reduces the risk of fractures and broken bones. So don’t skip the weights ladies ;) Your body will thank YOU!
