Although many women work hard to avoid muscle building, fitness routines women should include muscle building. Building muscle is not blowing, it comes to balance, a higher metabolism, and increase your overall health.

The benefits of building muscle and why you need to do

Muscle mass is more than just make you look good.

Strength training will:
- Increase your strength and flexibility
- Improve your posture
- Provide better balance
- Increase the number of calories burned each movement, thereby burning more calories overall throughout the day
- Make it easier to perform daily tasks
- Improving body composition
- Reduce the amount of muscle mass lost due to inactivity, which becomes more common with age

muscle strengthening, balance and the importance of movement

You can not just focus on one problem area difficult when you workout and wait just disappear. Woman quality physical education should be an important element: balance. And to maintain this balance, you need to follow training programs that work all the muscles of the body. If you do not, and the program focuses on one muscle group over another, you will build muscle and weak joints, leaving you susceptible to injury.

Quads are a common example. If only he worked his quadriceps, making the equivalent amount of hamstring and hip exercises, which will end by tilting the pelvis and significant stress on the back.

Also, you have to work your heart, not just the upper abs. You need to work all your heart. This involves more than two dozen muscles, including the abdomen, lower back and hip muscles, which adds to the stability of the spine and stand.

The muscles, metabolism and body composition

There are some things you need to know about muscles, energy, and metabolism:
- The muscles use energy when they contract (very metabolic).
- The most intense muscle contractions, the more energy you will use to perform the movement.
- Over time, movements can come so intense that your muscles more oxygen than the body can produce is used. This creates an oxygen deficit that can last for hours after a workout.
- Your body needs more nutrients after an oxygen deficit because you need to replenish your energy levels and oxygen.
- To build muscle, you need to be taking more energy than switching off.
- Resistance training and high-intensity exercises prevent muscle loss by stimulating protein synthesis.
- Metabolic rates fall for three reasons when you can not eat enough nutrients: thyroid function slows down, there is a reduction in muscle mass, and there is the less thermal effect of food.

The secret to changing your changes in body composition is to make the appropriate lifestyle. Simply by adopting healthy habits, you can take advantage of lean muscle with low body fat percentage.

Keep your habits, and these changes will continue to stay with you as you age, so it is possible for you to burn calories and enjoy a beautiful body shape at any age. This is the opposite of what many think.

Research shows that your metabolism decreases with each decade over the age of 25. It also decreases muscle mass between the ages of 25 and 65. And since muscles use energy, we can safely assume the two are linked - drop your metabolism (making weight loss seems to be increasingly difficult with age) is the result of a loss of muscle mass.

The only way to keep your metabolism at its highest level and ready to burn calories are through regular resistance training, eating, healthy meals frequently and regularly, and customizing your workout routines to avoid muscle adaptation. And if you stick to these three steps, your body needs to stay healthy, fit and young for years to come. Make sure your women's fitness workouts include resistance training so you can look and feel your best.
