Why Women Can Burn Unhealthy Body Fat While They Lay On The Pool
It’s unfortunate that many women are scared to lift weights because they think they are going to get huge muscle like a man. Slowly that stigma is leaving and that is a great thing because weight training does something that not many other workouts allow… the after burn calorie affect.
When you use good weight training for women workouts, you force your body to adapt to all new stimulus. You’ve probably read before that your muscles get small tears in them after your lift weights. It’s these small tears and the repair process your body goes through that keep your body burning calories for up to 48 hours after your workout.
And that means that the next day, even while you do nothing but lay out to get sun, you are still burning calories. That is also why resting your body is so important. Treadmill workouts when done the right way using intervals and sprints can have the same affect, although not as good.
That should show you that the best fat burning workouts involve weight training and not just walking or running for 40 minutes straight. However, when you put weight training and cardio together in the same fitness lifestyle plan then you can expect some incredible results and fast too.
During this period of rebuilding, it’s really important that you rest though. Many women think they can speed their results up by working out again, but this will actually have the opposite affect and lead to overtraining.
Overtraining is when you don’t rest your body and it constantly takes new damage from working out so it never gets the opportunity to fully recover.This can lead to physical sickness, muscle atrophy, depression, and even death in the most extreme cases.
Just remember that weight training has to be part of your program, but you must rest for at least a whole day after your workout before you do your next workout. Now you can see that the rest period is so important for your body and you can see how great it is that you can be laying by the pool and still be burning calories from the previous days workout.
