Strength
Training Workouts
Can strength training workouts help you?
Wayne Wescott, Ph.D, fitness director at the South Shore YMCA in Quincy,
Mass, conducted a study that put 70 people on a low-fat diet while also
testing the effects of exercise. One group did both endurance and strength
training, or weight lifting, and lost twice as much weight as the group
that only used endurance exercises. What's more, the group that didn't
lift weights lost half a pound of muscle in two months, while
those using strength training workouts gained two pounds
of muscle.
Evidently, dieting and exercising without strength training can cause
you to lose muscle mass, which will slow your metabolism. That means you
won't be able to maintain your weight loss, and will slowly regain your
lost weight when the diet is over.
This is where we can help. We have written the eBook Weight
Lifting for Absolute Beginners, which will get you off to a great
start as you begin this program.
Weight
Lifting For Absolute Beginners is illustrated so that anyone can
begin using this valuable technique quickly and easily, with only $5.00
worth of equipment, in the privacy of your own home.
Because muscle cells burn more energy than fat cells, and strong muscles
burn more calories than flabby muscles. All strength training
workouts use up this sugar. They also store sugar as a source
of energy for the next time they're used.
The sugar stored in muscle cells doesn't turn into fat. And the improved
metabolism means that you don't have to worry as much about dieting. If
you've been dieting for years, weight lifting exercises are even more
important, because they allow you to correct the metabolic damage caused
by your low-cal diets. And our strength training
workouts are easy to learn.
