Whether you want better muscle definition, improved posture or an increased body metabolism the answer is to strengthen your body.
Your body, (yes, yours!) is amazing. It can change its capabilities based on the amount of stress that is placed on it. Because our bodies face unequal stress, there may be areas of your body that could be developed or strengthened.
When you come to see Diane for strength training she will assess which areas of your body need to be strengthened or which you desire to be strengthened. She may carry out various strength tests to see the start point from which she is working and then re measure at intervals to measure progress. Most people love doing strength tests and getting real results! It brings out the competitive streak in most of us!
Strengthening the body can give you a real advantage:
- It improves your performance at daily tasks
- Strengthens the bones helping to prevent the advancement of osteoporosis
- It increases your body metabolism, making it work more efficiently
- It can improve posture.
- It tones the muscles giving them a firmer definition and increases their size, often at the expense of fat!
Muscles which are not worked through a sedentary lifestyle become weak and unhealthy. The strength training concentrates on stressing the various muscle groups.
Diane will provide the necessary stimulii to your muscles to enable them to grow. She uses a mixture of methods to overload your muscles so they work beyond what has routinely been asked of them.
Strength training involves working with increasing weight, exercising with that weight over longer periods between rest, and also decreasing the rest periods allowed for muscle recovery.
This type of training is often favoured by men. However it is just as valid for healthy women working within the strength constraints of the female body.
Come and talk to her about weight training and strengthening your body. You don’t have to be a hench guy to know how it works!!
