Improving Strength

Ladies, while your workouts may keep you fit and slim, research suggests that women are failing in one key aspect when it comes to exercise - improving strength. In fact, studies suggest that women are weaker than they have ever been, partly because many focus purely on weight loss rather than strength. Concerns that muscles aren’t feminine are also a key factor in ladies’ dwindling strength. However, while you may not care about visibly gaining muscles, poor muscle strength has many implications for our health, including increased risk of osteoporosis and back and joint pain.
