Women Should Strength Train

2. Reason #1
Increase Self-Confidence and
“See What You’re Made Of”

3. Getting stronger in the weight room is an
incredible way to boost your self-confidence.
Once you strength train consistently it's likely
that this newfound realization of your physical
abilities in the weight room will carry-over into
everyday life.

4. As you get stronger and see what you're truly
capable of doing, you'll discover how strong
(physically AND mentally) you truly are.

5. Reason #2
Build the Body You REALLY Want

6. Exclusively performing hours and hours of
cardio each week is NOT the best way to build
a lean and strong body.
If your goal is to "tone-up", lose body fat, and
have some rockin' feminine curves, you need to
strength train.

7. Reason #3
Strength Training Allows You to
Set Positive, Motivating Goals

8. When you're in the gym, your mission is not to
burn as many calories or as much fat as
possible. Set performance-based goals that
keep you motivated.
Examples of performance-based goals include:
being able to perform 10 push-ups, achieving
your first bodyweight chin-up, squatting your
bodyweight, and other similar goals that are
exclusively strength and performance focused.

9. What are The OTHER Benefits to
Performance-Based Goals?
You achieve the aesthetic goals you're
after, only this way they become a side-effect.
You'll actually ENJOY the process because
you'll be motivated by seeing what you're body
is capable of DOING instead of obsessing over
how it looks.

10. Reason #4
Strength Training as a
Form of Stress Relief

11. If you've had a rough day at work, few things
can be as beneficial as lifting a heavy barbell or
busting out a challenging set of bodyweight
exercises to blow off steam.
The next time you're anxious or need to expel
some energy, hit the gym and improve your
performance from your previous workout.
This is a great, and productive, way to alleviate
stress.

12. Reason #5
Leading by Example for the
Younger Women in Your Life

13. Training for strength, improving your health,
and being proud of what your body CAN DO
sets a terrific example for the younger women
in your life.
Becoming a stronger, more awesome version of
yourself spreads a terrific message to the
younger women who look up to you.
Show them how to choose strength and being
the most awesome version of themselves over
dieting and constantly trying to “be less” (e.g.
weighing less, eating less, etc).

14. Reason #6
Because Other Methods for
Building a Better Body Have Failed

15. There's a good chance you've tried several
other ways to lose fat and build the body you
want. Many popular programs are too time
consuming and leave you exhausted.
Forget the fads and gimmicks.
Improving your performance and getting
stronger through a sound strength training
program will help you achieve
the results you want.
And even better - you‘ll maintain
the results you achieve long-term.

16. Reason #7
Prevent Diseases Such as
Osteopenia and Osteoporosis

17. Most women work out because they want to
look better. While there's nothing wrong with
this (we all want to look great!), there are
additional health benefits to strength training
that must not be ignored.
Sure, thinking about improving your bone
health may not be a sexy topic, but it's crucial
to improving and maintaining a high quality of
life, especially as you get older.

18. Reason #8
Bring Out, and Become,
the Best YOU Possible

19. Sure, building a great looking body you love is
important. But perhaps the best benefit to
strength training is that it allows you
to become the most awesome version of
yourself possible.
Don't be afraid to discover YOUR unique
strengths and abilities and capitalize on them.
Make the most of what you’re naturally good at
doing.
