THERE ARE PLENTY OF REASONS TO ADD RESISTANCE TRAINING TO YOUR WEEKLY WORKOUTS
THE BENEFITS OF GETTING STRONGER

From pump and Pilates to using the different weight machines at the gym, resistance training is big news now more than ever! And it’s not just about toning up. Whether your goal is to shed a few extra kilos, improve your general health, or simply feel better as you go about your regular day, there are plenty of reasons to make strength training a regular part of your weekly exercise routine.

One of the best things about resistance training is the amount of choice that is available nowadays.

Weights have become increasingly popular with women in gyms around the country. But if group exercises are more your thing, consider pump, barre, Pilates, or another resistance-based workout class. Pilates and Barre can also be great options for exercising at home. It’s important to talk to a doctor about any medical concerns you have before starting any new kind of training. A qualified personal trainer or physical therapist can also help you with using weights to make sure you’re using the correct technique.
