2. Burn body fat and accelerate the "manufacturing" of muscles. A study by Dr. Wayne from the American Young Men's Christian Association found that women can lose 1.6 kg of fat and "make" nearly 1 kg of muscle by carrying out weight lifting training 2-3 times a week for two months. Moreover, the muscles obtained through exercise will consume calories continuously, and 500 grams of muscles will burn 35 to 50 calories every day.
3. Don't worry about overly masculine muscle lines. Because the content of hormones promoting muscle growth in women is much lower than that in men, women usually don't become particularly big because of training. This is one of the reasons why young American women are keen on strength training.
4. Increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Through training, the calcium content of female spine can be increased by 13% in just half a year. With proper diet, osteoporosis caused by calcium deficiency can be well resisted. This is the main reason why many middle-aged and elderly American women are keen on fitness.
5. Reduce muscle soreness and back pain. Strength training such as fitness can not only promote the development of skeletal muscle, but also help to strengthen the firmness of soft tissue and joints. A recent survey in 12 years shows that aerobic exercise can successfully relieve and eliminate chronic back pain, and the effective rate is as high as 80%.
6. Enhance cardiovascular function and reduce the risk of diabetes. Dr Franklin of william Beaumont Hospital in Michigan, USA, found that it can reduce the content of "bad cholesterol" and increase the content of "good cholesterol", at the same time, it can relieve high blood pressure. Especially for middle-aged and elderly patients with cardiovascular diseases, its curative effect is particularly remarkable. The study also found that if you keep exercising for four months, your body's ability to metabolize glucose will increase by 23%, thus greatly reducing the risk of diabetes.
7. Enhance self-confidence and self-endurance. A research result of Harvard University shows that after 10 weeks of strength training, the subjects can effectively relieve their depression, and its curative effect is more remarkable than psychological counseling. Through dancing and other sports, women can enhance their self-confidence, improve their ability to resist external pressure and have better psychological quality.
