Why women should be lifting weights and developing their strength.

Below are just a few benefits of lifting weights for women. Ultimately, there are so many reasons, but I thought I'd note down ones that I feel are important to know.

- To build & preserve muscle. After the age of 30, we can lose 3-8% of muscle mass every decade, so lifting weights is key for maintaining muscle mass.

- It boosts collagen production by increasing your blood flow and delivering more nutrients to your skin cells. This supports our skin elasticity, tissue repair, and joint health. If your collagen production is low, it can contribute to age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia).

- It supports our bone density, which helps prevent bone loss and reduces the risk of osteoporosis later in life.

- Improves our key hormone balance, helps regulate blood sugar, and lowers cortisol (the stress hormone). This can make a huge difference to a woman through different life cycles.

- Triggers the release of endorphins (feel-good brain chemicals) to help our stress and anxiety.

The list goes on. There are so many benefits to being strong, and it's not going to make you 'big & bulky'. It is going to promote a long and healthy life.

Happy Sunday ☀️ I am feeling so grateful for the long, warm summer days at the moment. Well-being is just as important as our health.

Wellness doesn't have to be complicated, overwhelming, or unsustainable. It can be as simple as swapping the time you spend scrolling on social media to picking up a book or listening to a podcast, going for a 10 min walk on your lunch break or making an effort to meal prep when you usually wouldn't. Buying yourself a bigger water bottle to increase your hydration or get an extra 30 mins sleep to aid your recovery.

Adding simple things into your daily routine can make a huge difference to your overall health. It's not all about the time you spend in the gym, how many days a week you train or how heavy you can lift. The little things you incorporate in your day to day life will promote your overall health.

Taking care of your mental health, your relationships, and managing your stress will give you balance and success ✨️

Let's talk about programme splits.

There are a lot of variations of training spilts, dependent on how many times a week you are training and your goals, but if you are trying to figure out what is going to be most effective, there are a few principles that should help you to decide.

Strength training splits are different ways of planning workouts throughout the week to target all the various muscle groups. 

The principles behind the splits can enhance muscle growth, recovery, and overall strength gains. 

1. Muscle Group Targeting

Split routines focus on specific muscle groups each session, allowing for more intense training on those areas. Common splits include upper/lower body, push/pull/legs, or body part splits (e.g. chest/triceps, back/biceps).

2. Frequency

Consider how often you want to train each muscle group. Full-body workouts may be done multiple times a week, while splits allow for higher intensity and volume on individual muscle groups but may only target them once a week.

3. Recovery

Allowing adequate rest for muscle recovery is crucial. Splits generally allow the targeted muscle groups to recover fully before being trained again, which is important for muscle growth and avoiding overtraining or injury. 

4. Volume and Intensity

Adjust the volume (number of sets and reps) and intensity (weight used) based on the split. More targeted splits can allow for higher volume on specific muscle groups, focusing on hypertrophy or strength.

5. Periodisation

Incorporate variations in load and volume over time to prevent plateaus and accommodate varying goals (e.g. building strength vs. muscle endurance).

6. Personalisation

Choose a split that fits your schedule, goals, and fitness level. If you are a beginner, you might prefer a full-body routine, while an experienced lifter may benefit more from a specific split.

2 slides of my dumbbell RDLs. 

Slide 1 - the reps are controlled however there is no emphasis on the negative or eccentric phase of the exercise. 

Slide two - onto top increasing the weight, I focused on the eccentric phase. The same form, engaged core and controlled movement however the exercise was slowed down, creating time under tension. 

The difference in reps vs time under tension is that reps will allow for progressive overload as well as muscle endurance but keeping tension in your muscles for a longer period of time will recruit more muscle fibres which leads to muscle growth. 

There are so many different ways to train, but tempo can really enhance your progress.
