Hi ladies, so i have a couple circuit questions.
After reading more about personal training and training in general, i figured that women need to train heavy as well. So any overweight person needs to invlolve weight training into their fitness program, correct? Building muscle is a key factor in being able to burn more calories and to look better.
Women will NOT get bulky as long as they dont overload on calories or take steroids/supplements, correct?
So if i had a circuit for a woman like this
lunges w/ db curls 12-15 reps fatigue
*air squats 1 minute*
reverse lunges w/ db 12-15 reps fatigue
*jumprope 1 minute*
alternating db press 8-12 reps fatigue
*step ups 1 minute*
db deadlift 8-12 reps fatigue
*side to side jump 1 minute*
alternating db curl 8-12 reps fatigue
*jumpingjacks 1 minute*
tricep kickbacks 8-12 reps fatigue
*pushups failure*
*plank to failure*
would this beconsidered a lifting day or a cardio day? I need to know if im gonna plan a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 day a week program for these people.
Also, on strict lifting days, with maybe cardio on treadmill after w/o, do they need to be split bodypart routines like a bodybuilder? Or since they are not going for mass its ok to work out every body part but go heavy, not too many sets.
