First ill introduce my self and my daughter....
My name is Chase and my daughter's name is Alise.
My daughter is a very out going athletic girl and being that we decided to introduce her to weights and other training. A lil back ground on my daughter and sports she plays: 2 years ago she started BMX racing. She acceled very quicky and became one of the top riders, in soccer her coach said he had never seen a more agressive and athletic girl. In softball she made girls that have played for 2 to 3 years look new tho the game and it was her first time on the field.
Now as for training for BMX we do a few things she sprints down hill 20 times 3 times a week (to condition her fast twitch muscles) 250 sit ups a nite and 100 push ups. 2 times a week she does free squats 5 sets of 10 reps (110 lbs.) On squats she started out at 30 lbs and worked her way up. She also does some bench pressing and decline and incline and also does a some curls. Like i said she is very active and i do push her a lil but she is always comeing to me with new exercises to improve her self. Heck i didn't know she was doing 250-300 sits ups a nite till a few months ago, LOL.
My main question is this since ive been told a women's muscles are different that a man ( i am geussing they mean well heck i don;t know what they mean) but is there anything i should watch for and is there any thing else i can do to support such a great Girl (my daughter).
As far as supplements she is taking a womens daily vitamin based on a vegatarian pill. takes 30 grams of Protein (and not soy). And i try to have her eat as much fruit as possible.
Is there anything i am missing any input is much apperciated....and feel free to ask any questions.
thanks
EDIT: she is 11 BTW....
