For example, the American
College of Sports Medicine promotes sessions of cardio 3-4 times a week,
combined with musculation or fitness 2-3 times a week for a diet.
Train with weights or
weight machines will not make you become a mountain of muscle, women do not
have the same capacity for muscle growth than men ! Your muscles will not be
bigger but firmest and stronger, which will lead to a toned and shapely figure.
Specifically, it is
advisable to combine cardio training and musculation in your sport.
In terms of musculation
workout, 2 to 3 times per week by working the body at each session should be
sufficient.
In general, women prefer
programs that target a specific part of the body such as the famous courses
bums and tums found in almost all gyms. This type of program is unfortunately
not complete and will tend to overwork worked areas. Do not get any illusions,
you do not lose fat locally, you lose fat throughout the body and these areas
are often the rebels.
For a harmonious and
balanced physique you have to work the entire body including the back, so
important for posture. Remember that the body is a chain as strong as its weakest
link. This also applies for men who lose their time to work only arms, abs and
pecs.
