118: Strength in Fitness: Debunking Muscle Building Myths for Women Part Three

OVERVIEW:

In this episode of Cheers to Your Success! Ashley breaks down some common misconceptions about muscle building for women. Will lifting weights make you bulky? Is cardio the only path to weight loss? Let's explore the facts.

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

  • Discuss the fear many women have about becoming overly muscular from lifting weights. Learn about the role of testosterone in muscle growth and why women, who naturally produce less testosterone than men, are unlikely to become 'bulky' from weight training.
  • Understand how resistance training can help tone muscles and increase lean mass, contributing to a stronger, healthier physique.
  • Unpack the misconception that cardio is the superior choice for weight loss. Discover how strength training contributes to calorie burn, even at rest.
  • Learn about the relationship between increased muscle mass from strength training and a higher resting metabolic rate, which can support weight loss and overall metabolic health.
