Because a woman has a different physiological make-up than a man,
female body building involves a different series of exercises than
men's body building.
Female body building, for instance, puts emphasis on the loss
of fat, and because of that, women's diets and supplementary needs are
different than a man's. To help rid a woman of excess fat, female body
builders usually begin their body building programs with brisk walking,
running and jogging programs .
Female body building doesn't bring about the same muscle gain
size as in the case of men; scientists explain this huge difference on
the basis of the hormone level that is three times larger in the case
of men, thus causing the so-called hypertrophy.
Another factor that is important in female body building is
its benefit in combating osteoporosis in women. The explanation lies in
bone modeling; there is 13% more mineral density in the bone level
after six months of body building training. Combined with proper
calcium intake, this could solve the osteoporosis problem for good.
Medical studies of female body builders show that back pain and
osteoporosis have almost disappeared for good!
Other important benefits of female body building include low
heart attack risk and joint condition improvement. Stronger muscles and
mobility of joints increases with resistance and strength training.
Female body building will also improve your physical skill.
If you like rock climbing or cycling, you will notice a definite better
overall performance due to your greater strength and stamina. Women
will feel more comfortable in their body because of female body
building. It can bring about a greater ease of movement and more
energy. And let us not forget the confidence factor that you will gain
from a healthier body. Studies have also shown that improved stress
management seems to go along with weight lifting/body building
training.
