4FITNESS AND HEALTH
lose weight and build lean muscular body in a healthy way
The difference between a workout for men and one for women is simply that the goals are different, there is no reason that a man couldn’t do these workouts or a woman couldn’t do a “man’s” workout.
The one big difference between men and women is how they respond to resistance training.
Because men’s testosterone levels are much higher, their bodies are able to respond to the resistance training by adding more muscle whereas the ability of women to do this is very limited.
If you are worried that lifting weights and working out will make you musclebound or make you lose your femininity then you have absolutely nothing to worry about.
Adding muscle mass increases your basic metabolic rate (BMR) which makes it easier to lose fat, great reason to add a little muscle.
Cardio workouts are indispensable to an effective training program and general good health.
By definition, cardio workouts can be any exercise—jogging, running, biking, swimming, elliptical machine, stairs, even jumping rope—that raises and maintains your heart rate over a predetermined amount of time.
By doing so, you strengthen your heart and lungs and lower your resting heart rate, which means that over time the same effort that produced a 10-minute mile will produce a 9-minute mile.
Cardio workouts burn fat. And cardio fitness is what gives you endurance and the ability to persist in sports and in life
