Female Fitness Exercise

When you walk into a regular gym, you find the vast majority of women in the cardio zone or in group classes, and almost only men in the weight room.

But if fitness classes are very effective, weight training is just as important, and in addition has many benefits.

At Sukhchan , unlike many rooms, we invite our members to practice bodybuilding sessions, and offer personalized programs.

Let's find out together why weight training is ideal for women.

You will never be “TOO” muscular

You might as well immediately bust a myth: no, you won't get too muscular while doing weight training, and you will never look like the Hulk. Conversely, your body and your forms will never have been emphasized so much.

This myth of massive muscle gain is completely unfounded, and is based on clichés related to professional athletes who develop very “bodybuilt” bodies. But unless you train 6 hours a day for 10 years, you'll never get anywhere near their looks.

In fact, women often have thinner bones than men, and anabolic hormones (which build muscle) also lower. As such, women gain muscle more slowly than men, and these muscles are less visible. And if your diet is not geared towards "muscle gain", then the risk goes down even further.

In fact, we should ALL do weight training

Unfortunately, bodybuilding still has a bad image in France, very far from its real benefits.

Yet strength training is the most complete sport there is, allowing you to develop all the muscles in the body, improve coordination of movements and prevent imbalances and physical pain.

It allows you to correct your posture and the harmful effects of a not very active daily life, and teaches you how to perform the simplest everyday actions correctly: picking up an object on the ground, carrying groceries, etc.

Do you want a celebrity body? The benefits of bodybuilding

If you've always wondered how celebs manage to maintain perfect bodies, here's the answer: They're bodybuilding.

Indeed, bodybuilding allows:

Burn fat more efficiently than cardio, thanks to a much greater expenditure of energy during exercise and after exercise.

Improve your metabolism: your body will need to consume more calories every day!

To draw the shapes: if you want a perfect posterior, you will get it by working it through weight training, and not by running for hours. By working all the muscles, weight training allows you to forge the silhouette of your dreams.

To have a better posture: practice weight training, and you will no longer have problems with your back imbalance, or hunched shoulders. Everything will be back to normal!
