		<description><![CDATA[Recently, researchers have made compelling arguments for the benefits of weight training for women. Even so, it seems that most women refuse to take this information to heart. Most women continue to pursue the &#8220;cardio&#8221; method to fitness and weight loss. Whatever your reasons for avoiding the weights, if you are a woman, here are five reasons why you need to take strength training seriously. You will be physically stronger without gaining bulk. You will decrease your risk of diseases such as osteoporosis, diabetes, and arthritis. You will improve your attitude and help avoid depression. You will reduce the risk of heart disease. You will reduce your risk of injury and the all too common back pain. So, you may need to rethink your point of view where weight training for women is concerned. The evidence is in &#8211; weight training for women can be a very effective path to weight loss, health and fitness. For more information about strength training for women, I recommend Mike Geary, certified nutrition specialist and certified personal trainer.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to Wayne Westcott, Ph. D. (www.healthy.net), women who do no strength training lose about 5 pounds of muscle every decade of their adult life. The result is a lower metabolism and a gradual increase in fat weight (about 15 pounds per decade), as well as a less fit, firm and attractive appearance. Women who start strength training typically lose twice as much fat as they gain muscle. So, rather than &#8220;bulking up&#8221; as some women fear, in most cases the added muscle simply replaces the muscle previously lost through lack of use. For more information about effective strength training for women, I recommend Mike Geary, certified nutrition specialist and certified personal trainer.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fredrick Hahn, president of the National Council for Exercise Standards and owner of Serious Strength, Inc. believes you can have a stronger, more fit body with just 30 minutes of exercise per week. He calls the technique &#8220;Slow Burn.&#8221; The idea is that the resistance (weights or your body) is lifted and lowered very slowly &#8211; about 10 seconds up and 10 seconds down. The benefits are said to be: A safer workout because the slow lifting is gentler on tendons, ligaments and joints, so even elderly people can safely perform the recommended exercises. It&#8217;s a more effective workout because there is no momentum in the movement to assist the muscles in moving the weight. It&#8217;s more efficient because you can get a complete strength workout in about 30 minutes per week, as opposed to at least 3 hours with conventional weight training workouts. For more information on the technique, Mr. Hahn has co-authored the book, The Slow Burn Fintess Revolution. Click the link below to see the book on Amazon. Slow Burn]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently you&#8217;ve heard a lot of people claiming that &#8220;diets don&#8217;t work.&#8221; Well, I&#8217;m here to tell you, &#8220;diets do work!&#8221; The trouble is, instead of working for you, they work against you. Extreme reductions in the calories you consume is no solution. You may lose some weight during the early stages of a &#8220;starvation&#8221; diet, but your body reacts in ways that you definitely don&#8217;t want it to: Your body starts changing hormone levels. It makes less of the fat-burning hormones and less of the hormone that tells your brain that you are well fed (so you get even hungrier). You lose muscle &#8212; the good tissue in your body which actually burns lots of energy. This is what you don&#8217;t want to lose. Drastic cuts in calories are not only counter-productive, they&#8217;re just plain unhealthy. Instead, cut back only a little bit. Eat sensibly &#8212; stop when your stomach says it&#8217;s full. So, if you want to burn off a bunch of calories, extreme diets and hours of cardio are NOT the answer. Instead, try a weight training program. Instead of big cuts in calories, pump up your metabolism and start burning more calories. You&#8217;ll feel better and [...]]]></description>
