DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know??

Weight Training Vs Aerobics

Weight training stresses the muscles, making them expand in time but only up to a limit. Aerobics are meant purely for stamina and cardio vascular efficiency. Aerobics help in the uptake of oxyge
n into the body. If you want the maximum from your workouts, you have to combine both of them. It has been seen that weight training over a period burns more calories than aerobics.

Untrained Muscles do not Convert into Fat

Muscles generally undergo a different metabolic process vis-a-vis fat cells. If you stop working out your muscles and stop applying resistance to your muscles, they will simply adapt, i.e. they will shrink and come back to their original form but they will definitely not be converted into fat.

Women who Weight Train do not Become Bulky

This is pure hogwash. Women simply do not produce enough testosterone to build huge muscles nor can they lift heavy weights that will allow them to bulk up. They also have poor appetites in the sense that they cannot consume as much protein as needed to build bulky muscles. sO LADIES....dont stay away from those weights!
