What are the benefits of strength training for girls

Nowadays, many men like to exercise their strength, but we women are not to be outdone. There are more and more women in gyms and other places. Not only men want to have a bodybuilding body, women also want to have a perfect devil body by exercising their strength. However, many people do not understand why a woman should exercise her strength. Women should be weak, and too much muscle will make them look too manly. In fact, this is not the case. Let’s take a look at the benefits of girls exercising their strength.

1. Enhance muscle strength and relieve fatigue from daily work. Through weightlifting training, women's maximum strength load can be increased by 30%-50%. Not only will holding children, washing clothes and doing housework become exceptionally easy, but engaging in other activities will also not easily cause injuries.

2. Burn body fat and accelerate muscle building.

Dr. Wayne of the YMCA of the United States found that women who perform weightlifting training 2-3 times a week for two months can lose 1.6 kg of fat and "create" nearly 1 kg of muscle. Moreover, the muscles gained through exercise will continue to consume calories. 500 grams of muscle will burn 35 to 50 calories per day. And general aerobic exercise cannot achieve such an effect.

3. Increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Through weight training, the calcium content in a woman's spine can be increased by 13% in just six months. Combined with a proper diet, it can effectively resist osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency. Many middle-aged and older American women are keen on weight training, mainly for this reason.

4. Reduce muscle soreness and back pain. Strength training such as weightlifting can not only promote the development of skeletal muscles, but also help to enhance the firmness of soft tissues and joints. A recent 12-year survey showed that weight training can successfully slow down and eliminate chronic back pain with an effectiveness rate of up to 80%.

5. Enhance self-confidence and improve self-restraint. A study from Harvard University showed that 10 weeks of strength training was able to effectively relieve depression, and its therapeutic effect was more significant than psychological counseling. Through strength training such as weightlifting, women can enhance their self-confidence, improve their ability to resist external pressure, and have better psychological quality.

The above are the benefits of girls exercising their strength. In fact, girls exercising their strength can not only strengthen their bodies but also achieve the effect of self-defense through exercising their strength. Girls exercising their strength may make people feel that it is not easy to understand, but girls who have exercised know that this is a kind of relaxation and a positive attitude towards life. Girls exercising their strength can make themselves stronger, and the most important thing is to achieve the effect of losing weight and maintaining a devilish figure.
