Why Do Weight Training?
Key points:
- Cardio is like renting:
- You always have to do the same amount (or more) to maintain your progress
- It only has one major benefit – it burns calories
- Weight training is like investing in a mortgage:
- It burns calories but also builds muscle
- Building muscle boosts your metabolism so you can eat more without putting on any fat
- In the long run you can train less and still stay lean (unlike cardio)
- Weight training…
- BURNS calories & fat – just like cardio does
- BUILDS muscle – adds curves to the right places and makes you firm and “toned”
- BOOSTS metabolism – eat more without gaining weight (and even lose fat whilst eating more)
