Women with Muscles: Part 2

The need for muscles

My trainer once remarked that I needed weight training of some sort to improve my muscle quality. What I first laughed out as a foolish experiment has become my necessity today! Let me be honest in mentioning that it has become an addictive necessity! I’ve realized after multiple grueling sessions of training that even in your early twenties, based on your eating habits, your muscles, (thanks to our sedentary jobs of clicking constantly on the computer) loosen bit by bit with every passing year. Of course after that heady day at the office, all we really require is a good night’s sleep, right?! Well, wrong! Sure we need a good night’s sleep, but are you sincerely getting the t healthy sleep that you so require? Whatever do I mean? Well, for starters, when we really hit the bed, for the first couple of hours, give or take a few, we don’t drop off within the stupor that generally accompanies a great peg! We do drop off in our unique way towards slumber, but that only happens after we’ve crossed the first 40 winks or so! In summer, before your body actually cools off, and before you realize it, it’s dawn already!

Weight training besides the initial brawl made by your body (because it’s not used to so much strain!) makes you drop off in a really great state of sleep. I generally prefer training in the night so that after about half an hour you can actually rest and sooth your aching muscles, thereby providing a better effect! I noticed all the healthy foods that you eat (which according to me, you don’t need to everyday!) you can actually work out better! Initially it was the belief that if you don’t eat regularly, you’ll lose the amount of energy that allows you to face the world each day.

What I’ve understood from experience is that you need to eat in limited proportions only so that you fill in the meal time and add on to where your body left off, after digestion. The reason perhaps why serious trainers only eat a limited amount of food, that’s conducive to a great shape is because when you focus all your energies on the particular body part, you don’t really need to tuck in truckloads everyday! After all your body too needs that much amount of energy to burn and digest it within your system right!

Progressing forward

So where do muscles figure in, at this point of time?

Well, there are 2 things, one that you don’t need undigested food that remains as a residue, adding to a belly (thereby obstructing your efforts to remain fit!) and that to come in to a lean shape you need a certain amount of food comprising mainly of proteins, fibers and minerals that help you in building up the shape (in terms of muscles) that are clogged within layers of well accumulated fat! Another mantra while shaping up is not to overdo your bit! Remember, when it comes to even the English phrase, it’s always a case of doing your bit! Never doing your bulk!! So when it’s biceps and triceps that you wish form, go slow, and possibly go one body part at a time.

That way you focus on what you are planning to whip up and complete it to the core. So if it’s a power walk, it’s only a power walk with ankle weights, never the whole body. And if it’s the time for arms its only arms! You could also give yourself the privilege of doing both arms and legs together, only if you can maintain the number of reps that you’ve done for each.

This way you benefit dually! You complete a work out regime that spans the whole body and concentrate for those many number of reps and don’t overdo. And secondly, you also have the satisfaction that this is one of the days that you completed an exhaustive round in the limited reps and can take a break of two days before you start again….. It’s extremely great to find women making some time for this regime, as believe me ladies, it sure gives men a huge colossal complex! So what are you waiting for; go ahead and make your day!
