What are Popular Women’s Fitness Programs?
Most women agree that having a nice butt and slimming down are the most important things in crafting the body they have always wanted. When you work with our personal trainers we will set up a women’s fitness program designed specifically for you that targets your problem areas. Here is a sneak peak at some of the things we do:
Exercises for Firming and Shaping Your Butt
If you want to “bring up your rear” kettlebell swings are a must. If you are in fairly good shape, our strength and conditioning coaches stress doing 100 non-stop kettlebell swings after working out your legs, using moderate weight. After this do 100 hip thrusters, and a series of deadlifts. With these exercises you will engage the glutes and posterior leg muscles.
Slimming Down
If your goal is to loose weight you will need to be assessed by our trainers, as every woman’s body is different. But as a general rule of thumb getting in 30 minutes of cardio followed by one hour of strength training and weightlifting, done no less than three times a week, will get most women the results they are after. But when it comes to weight loss and women’s fitness, diet is just as important. In most cases, eating 6 small meals a day (one could be 4 oz of skinless chicken breast, a few baby carrots, and an apple slice) will help boost your metabolism and help you avoid taking in too many calories.
A Tighter Tummy
For abdominal exercises crunches and sit-ups will be key to any women’s fitness program. Planking is also ideal, and adding weight always helps. Just make sure your rib cage is open, you remember to breathe, and you hold the right posture.
