Weights for Women by Yolande Green
This guide takes you through the principles and practice of weight training, and showing just how easy it can be. The first section explains the benefits in detail - from reduced body fat to anti-ageing effects and improved self esteem. You learn where the various muscles are, how they work and what the use of weights achieves, before going on to design a weekly exercise plan that's right for you. Common myths about the use of weights are dispelled and jargon is decoded. The second part of the book comprises step-by-step full body exercises, showing variations for working each muscle, with key steps illustrated by means of specially commissioned duotone photographs. Warning boxes highlight common mistakes and provide tips on technique. Divided into major muscle groups, from shoulders to calves and triceps to gluteals, each exercise set is accompanied by the relevant stretch and release moves, to ensure that the vital post-exercise stretches are not forgotten.| SKU | Unavailable |
