are recognizing strength training as a major player in the

battle against fat loss. Here are the top 10 benefits

women receive from strength training:

1) Increased Metabolic Rate- adding muscle increases our

metabolism naturally.

2) Increasing and Restoring Bone Density- prevent and fight

osteoporosis by building strong bones.

mass burns 35-50 calories per day.

bones, ligaments, and tendons.

5) Improved Balance- strong leg and core muscles help

stabilize us.

6) Decreased Risk of Coronary Disease- strength training

can reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

7) Aids Rehabilitation and Recovery- the best way to

strengthen and recover from an injury is to slowly build

your strength around the injured area.

8) Enhanced Performance in Sports, Exercise and Life In

General- climbing stairs, carrying the kids, or walking

with your spouse becomes more enjoyable.

9) Aging Gracefully- strong muscles build a strong body.

Strength training and fitness can help keep aging bodies in

well-working condition.

10) Feeling Better and Looking Better- strength training

reduces overall body fat, it tones our muscles and it

builds confidence.
