Bye-Bye Fat: Weight Lifting for Beginners

I just had a conversation this morning with one of my personal training clients about muscle.  She said, “The scale doesn’t seem to be moving, but my clothes are fitting better and my body feels tighter.”  That’s great!  Forget the scale and let those clothes encourage you!  Ladies, you have to believe me: 
MUSCLE WEIGHS MORE THAN FAT!!!  
In fact, MUSCLE BURNS FAT!!!  


 It’s true, in order to say good-bye to unwanted fat, you need to be lifting weights.  It will REDESIGN and RESHAPE your body 🙂 
HERE is a blog I wrote about strength training for WOMEN.  
Take a look! 
Please let me know if you have questions.  
Now go lift something today!!!

 

Interval Training

SHRED your fat
and 
TONE your muscle 
F A S T  
with a shorter workout time by 
combining these 2 exercises methods:

HIGH-INTENSITY with LOW-INTENSITY
Get the MOST out of your workout session!
the INTERVAL TRAINING why:


  • 20 minutes of a high/low intensity workout burns more calories than a 20 min steady workout!
  • Your body will continue to burn calories up to 48 hours after you stop exercising!
  • It will boost your metabolism significantly longer than a longer steady workout!
  • You will build lean muscle tissue FASTER than steady state training!

ONE WAY to do this:
combine STRENGTH exercises
with 
HIGH-INTENSITY exercise 


1) Start:  5 minute warmup
2) Alternate: 
STRENGTH LIFT 8-10 reps
and
1 minute of HIGH-INTENSITY 
 jog. jump. bike. squats. 
3)  Continue for 30 minutes
4)  Cool down for 5 minutes
