Why Strength Train?

• Strengthens bones: in order to increase bone density and decrease your risk of osteoporosis you need to impose a stress on them, and it needs to be more than simply walking.
• Controls body fat: muscle burns more calories than fat at rest thereby increasing your resting metabolic rate. So the more muscle you build through weight training the more calories you burn, minimizing the amount of fat that is available to deposit.
• Prevents injuries: when done with proper form, protects your joints from injury.
• Boosts stamina: you will find you fatigue less easily when you strength train.
• Improves self-image: women who strength train can boost their self-confidence and body image while reducing the risk of depression.
• Improves sleeping patterns: you are less likely to suffer from insomnia if you regularly strength train.
