Ladies, I am here to tell you that you can put your mind to rest along with your fears, when it comes to you not engaging in intense forms of resistance training and weight-lifting because you think you will transform into the Hulk. The truth is that the more intense you train and challenge your body the quicker you will see results. Yes, I said you will see results quicker! I shouldn't have to justify this statement because of my many years of education, certifications, and experience with all people from all walks of life, but to ease your anxiety I will.

To start, when I say strength training I am NOT talking about BODYBUILDING! Bodybuilding is a sport and a type of strength training that specifically targets training the body for muscular size. This type of training involves many variables and the people you see on TV and in the magazines that are bodybuilders are doing this as their full-time job with a lot of help from some form of chemical alteration. When I talk about you strength training I mean you have to tension your body with as many forms of resistance as possible in order for your body to be challenged and become fitter. Engaging in intense exercise and resistance training can mean several different things. Being that there are many forms of resistance training you can engage in exercises that involve free-weights, kettlebells, medicine balls, and just your own body-weight. These are all different forms of resistance training in which you can intensify to lose that stomach and get a nice set of six pack abs. Higher intensity exercise also promotes higher fat-loss and weight-loss than lower intensity exercise.

Just remember that you no longer have to fear strength training. If you have heard that you should fear this throughout your life trust me it is holding you back from getting that Greek Goddess body that I know you want!
