Top 2 Weight Lifting Myths for Women

1. Lifting Weights will cause you to Bulk - False
    Truth: Women have 10 to 30 times less testosterone than men, because of that women are much less equipped to gain muscle mass. BONUS: You will however, develop muscle tone and definition.

2. Weight Lifting won't help me burn fat, so I'll just stick with the treadmill- False
     Truth: Strength training 2 to 3 times a week for two months can help you gain at least 2 pounds of muscle and lose at least 3.5 pounds of fat. BONUS: Also, as lean muscle increases so does your metabolism and causes you to burn more calories all day long.
