Build Muscles - Lose Fat


Would you like to pick up the pace of your fitness efforts? Maybe start seeing more results in less time? Strength training can help you burn more calories and tone your body!

If you combine weight training with flexibility and aerobics, and your program is balanced enough, you don't have to be concerned about developing over exaggerated muscles."

If you think lifting weights is just for pumped-up hard-bodies who flex their pecs in public, think again. Building muscle benefits everyone man or woman, at any age. In fact, older people may have the most to gain from weight or resistance training, because strength is so crucial to functioning independently.

Weight training will give you the strength and endurance to perform daily tasks more efficiently and safely during work, errands and recreation.

It can also:

improve your body's muscle-to-fat ratio, helping you burn calories more efficiently and lose weight;

help prevent injuries, especially to the arms, legs, and back;

balance aerobic exercise; and

help you develop a toned body

If you're just beginning, talk with a professional who can help you test your strength and recommend the best exercises for your ability and objectives. Improper lifting or lifting too much at one time can cause injury. Be careful not to do just upper-body and leg work - include some abdominal training.

The best way to lose your belly is with plenty of cardio and tone those ab muscles!
