A revolutionary fitness plan for women, focusing on weightlifting to create a lean, strong, feminine physique
In "The New Rules of Lifting for Women," fitness experts and authors Lou Schuler and Alwyn Cosgrove continue their wildly popular "New Rules of Lifting "series with a comprehensive strength training, conditioning, and nutrition plan specifically designed to help women reap the benefits of weightlifting. Along with women's fitness expert Cassandra Forsythe, they show how stepping off the treadmill and into the weight room can help women get the body they want.
Contrary to popular belief, weight training will not cause women to "bulk up," but rather will create the properly conditioned muscles that will in turn increase metabolism and promote weight loss, and give women a lean, healthy look. "The New Rules of Lifting for Women" includes six months' worth of progressively challenging workouts that strip fat while increasing strength and building lean, head-turning muscle--all in two to three hours a week. The authors also provide an easy-to-use, customizable nutrition program that shows you how much to eat to reach your goals.
