Women Need to Lift Weights


Women these days are too afraid to use weights during their workouts because they buy into the myth that somehow when they're done using weights, they will in some way, shape, or form resemble the incredible hulk. That just isn't so. A woman's body isn't made up the same way as a man's, for obvious reasons. Let me reiterate that women do not have levels of testosterone as men do, or other genetic features that would cause them to bulk up quickly. The women who do have bulky muscles have to actually try really hard to get that look.

Loss of muscle mass is unfortunately part of the natural aging process. This is concerning for women who are aging since they are likely to develop osteopenia or worse yet, osteoporosis which can prevent women from doing basic daily activities as they grow older. But women who train with weights and strengthen not only their muscles but their bones as well, can prevent these damaging effects on their bodies.

You could be one of those women who has discovered that for some reason, due to age, the hip and stomach area has, enlarged over time. Or maybe your body has become large all over. When you combine aging with being inactive, it results in loss of muscle mass as fat cells increase, and of course by not eating a proper diet. Women are getting rid of fat and reving up their metabolism by participating in Chandler Boot Camp and of course, they are training with weights.

Exercise is important to anyone, especially when using weights no matter what age you are. Strength training helps women increase not only muscle size, but strength as well. 'Lean body mass' is also known as the muscle mass created by lifting weights. As you can see, it's important for every women to add in some type of weight lifting into their workout program, just like you would find at one of the Chandler boot camps. If you exercise by only running or walking fast, that won't increase your muscle mass, however it will burn calories. Your metabolism also diminishes with loss of muscle mass. Over time, all this adds up to an out of shape and over weight body with weakened bones. That doesn't sound very appealing.

What have you learned? At any age, it truly is never too late to start lifting weights to get those muscles firm. Don't let foolish thinking slow down the progress you could make by lifting some weights. It's not just for men. Every woman should incorporate some weights into their daily fitness routine for health reasons alone, just like current clients in Chandler bootcamp.

Rev up Your Metabolism

Are you currently witnessing a metabolic slow down? A metabolism that's barely moving is a sure sign of zero fat loss. Your body needs you to do something! Attending our Chandler Boot Camp fitness program would help you boost your metabolism, but we'll go over a few other things as well.

First off, you have to realize you have the capability to get that slow metabolism kicked up a few notches. It simply isn't possible to get into jaw dropping shape with a slow metabolism. How do we put a fire under your metabolism? There are two main keys to keep in mind.

1) Eat


You read it right...Eat! A sluggish metabolism will increase the more frequently and often you eat. Now you can't sit down to a meal of french fries and hot dogs all the time and expect to lose weight. But with a proper diet rich in foods with protein, you will without a doubt see a frisky metabolism. Simply by spreading out those proper meals to small 5-7 meals all through out the day, your body will automatically fire up your internal furnace, known as your metabolism.

The point I'm trying to make is this...similar to how fire burns wood, your body will burn meals that are smaller. By consuming a large high calorie meal, is the same as putting a big oak tree on a small fire. The conclusion: the fire will be smothered out.
On the other hand, if you put several smaller meals in your body through out the day, it's like putting kindling on a fire....you are producing a fuel for instant warmth.
You see, small frequent meals and snacks keep the fire ignited (your metabolism). On the other hand, the big logs (high calorie meals) smother out the fire. We are looking to feel the burn! We can turn up our body's heat by simply eating frequent small meals.

2) Exercise.

Not only does exercise blast away unwanted calories, it gets rid of fat. Not too much of a big surprise. Joining a fitness program like Arizona's Chandler Boot Camp is the best solution to burn fat and calories. "More calories out vs. calories in." That's the basic underlying principle, but there are many other factors that come into play. Lets keep this really easy.

Challenging interval style types of exercises can keep anyone burning calories all through out the day. You have to realize that muscle is an active tissue. This means that it requires calories to maintain it's life. Roughly 40-50 calories per pound of muscle is an estimate on how many calories your body requires per day to sustain it. That might not sound like much, but what if you added 5-10 lbs of lean muscle to your body? You could have the possibility to burn an extra 250-550- calories per day. That is a lot of extra calories! Especially when that happens naturally from having higher muscle mass levels and no additional activity is required....bonus!
Performing exercises that use resistance is the best way to build muscle that burns calories...a.k.a. weight training. If you haven't, then you should make it a point to combine resistance training to your fitness program. Resistance based exercise programs are superior to cardio based activities for supporting your metabolism.

When you incorporate moderate to heavy weights in your fitness routine, you will increase your resting metabolic rate. It is estimated that your resting metabolic rate (RMR) is responsible for roughly 60-70% of your daily energy expenditure. Anything you can do to raise your RMR will have the greatest net effect on your fat loss efforts. From an exercise view, nothing compares to resistance training as far as impact.

Cardiovascular exercise will also help elevate a slow metabolism. Your body will continue to burn additional calories, sometimes hours after you have finished your workout. The more intense (effort) your workout is, the longer your metabolism will continue burning calories at an accelerated rate.

You'll see what happens to your slow metabolic rate when you start to hit your resistance and cardio training with some intense effort. You should begin to notice positive changes to your metabolic rate within a few weeks of applying proper nutrition and a resistance based exercise program. Incorporate some cardiovascular intervals, like at Chandler Boot Camp training, to the mix when you are ready and the skies the limit.
You'll want to eat a diet with healthy foods and sufficient amounts of protein all through out the day. Frequency of eating will bring a slow metabolism back from the dead.

Ladies, Don't Under Eat!


Some women fall into the trap of not eating enough because they think it will make them thin. This is a very unhealthy way to lose weight and besides it doesn't work. As soon as you do eat 'normally' again you will gain all the weight back, and then some.

A question that most women ask in boot camp is: How many calories should I be eating?

For women to lose body fat, you do need a slight deficit in the calories you consume which is around 10-11 calories per pound of body weight. However, I find that women are under eating, especially protein, and are under the minimum 10-11 calories per pound mentioned above. So what does that do to your bodies ability to lose fat? It creates a domino effect of negative reactions to losing any body fat at all.

Here is what under eating does to your body:

~ Slow your metabolic rate considerably (up to 30%)

~ Sacrifice (tear down) muscle for energy. Not good!

~ Decrease thyroid levels

~ Cause hunger pangs…a starving mechanism so you’ll eat.

~ Lower testosterone levels. I know you’re a girl, but testosterone is still important.

~ Cause nutritional GAPS. You’re not getting enough of the right nutrients to support metabolic functions.

~ Cause fatigue. You have no energy to exercise at the intensity that you need to be.

~ Increased insulin response from low protein meals. You want it low.

~ Cortisol levels increased from putting your body in “stress” starvation mode.

~ Serotonin levels sharply decrease causing sugar cravings! A biggie ladies!!


Under eating or starving yourself also causes other problems as well. It's not hard to see that you shouldn't go overboard when cutting your calories. It is important rather that you include a good source of lean protein each time you eat your daily meals and snacks. You should be eating at least 5 times per day!
