No wonder working out with weights is the fastest-growing activity in fitness gyms. It keeps muscles toned, reduces body fat, burns calories faster, lowers risk of osteoporosis, fights off middle-age spread, and reduces arthritic pain. The myths associated with weight training at last are being exploded: it''s not true that weight training makes you musclebound, that muscle will turn to fat if you stop exercising, that you''ll lose your coordination or shrink your bust, or get big buttocks. Here''s the chance to join the ranks of women who are creating finely sculpted bodies and hearty, healthy minds. Hundreds of photos show every step of a complete workout schedule, from the first stretches when you join a gym to a tour of every piece of bodybuilding equipment, to the proper way to carry out each exercise, with routines for beginning, intermediate, and advanced stages. Each part of the body gets a careful focus as you find out how to shape and firm the muscles that support your bust for a bettercleavage and silhouette; tone and strengthen your back to improve posture and prevent injury; tone up your shoulders to make clothes fit and hang better (and make your waist appear smaller); shape your legs to prevent the buildup of cellulite; lean up your arms for a slender look and a more graceful walk; flatten and strengthen the abdomen so it looks great and protects your back and internal organs. Clearly the hours spent doing strenuous reps will take a lot of work. But if you''ve tried the shortcuts and wasted money on useless gadgets, then get ready to change your life as you join the millions of women who know what works and do what it takes.
