If you have been thinking about starting a weight loss program and realized that strength training with resistance bands (STWRB) will actually cause you to lose more weight than a strict, low calorie diet. Then you are right!
Most women believe that working out will give them manly muscles or that they will bulk up. This is the furthest thing from the truth. It is almost impossible for women to ever achieve the muscularity that a guy can, without taking steroids.
Yet, no other type of exercise will provide you the kind of fat loss that STWRB will provide you.
Whether you're a male or a female, strength training with resistance bands will give you these kinds of benefits:
- Increasing endurance and flexibility
- Protecting your joints (reducing your injury risk)
- Increasing bone mass (which helps prevent fractures and degeneration from osteoporosis)
- Increasing your energy level
- Boosting your metabolism
Recent research has shown that if you include STWRB in your workouts you will burn more calories than those people that do not do any.
These studies have also shown that regular STWRB will raise your body's metabolism by 15%. That means an average woman will burn 200 to 300 extra calories while resting each day!
STWRB continues to give you results even after the workouts over!
Just bear in mind, that muscle weighs more than fat, so don't be surprised if you look slimmer and shapelier, but the scale says you are heavier.
Strength training with resistance bands is ideal for both guys and gals. Most exercise bands allow you to start with resistance levels of 5 pounds, and the better ones go up to 150 pounds.
This way any one any age or any sex can begin receiving the benefits of a STWRB program immediately.
