Strength training is an easy way for women to stay in shape while ensuring the continued bodily strength to live your life without restrictions. Another positive aspect of strength training is that you will avoid many problems and illnesses that are related to a sedentary lifestyle.

As you might already know, the older you become the less active you tend to be, which causes muscles to lose their strength. However, by incorporating strength training you will have an advantage, as it will help you to maintain a strong, lean and sculpted body for your entire life.

There is nothing to lose in taking up strength training but so much to win and there is no better workout for women as the benefits are countless. Now, lets start by taking a look at the most common pitfalls you should avoid when getting involved in strength training

When it comes to strength training for women there are a lot of different pitfalls that you need to watch out for as they can easily lower your chances of getting that stronger, leaner and more sculpted figure.

Although these may seem pretty obvious, in my experience, many women dont pay attention to them because they are either unknown to them or they simply dont care about them.

Its always easy to be smart in retrospect, once youve had to deal with a serious injury or accident. However, by educating yourself about the risk you will be able to easily identify when they are most likely to occur, and easily avoid them.

All of the pitfalls below are actually common sense, yet you would be surprised to find out how many women get them completely wrong and cause themselves unnecessary suffering, both physically and mentally.

Luckily, you will not be one of these, because as youre smart enough you will spend some time reading through this material and then reflect on how to avoid falling into the common traps when working on your strength.

Some women believe that the more workouts they can do, they will achieve increased weight loss and a more sculptured body. You can usually recognize these women easily as they tend to work out day in and day out, which makes you wonder whether they do anything else besidesworking out!

One of the biggest dangers of over training is the potential of developing a disease called osteoporosis, which simply put makes your bones weaker and more prone to fractures, which could lead to lifetime complications.

If you believe that you have over trained (or at risk) it is recommended (besides seeking professional help) to try eating healthier and consume enough calories to support your daily physical activities [1].

When it comes to strength training I would recommend that you always allow a day between your workouts where you are simply resting. On those days, just focus on eating healthy food and relaxing, while allowing your body to re-charge and get ready for the upcoming workout the next day.

However, failing to rest properly is where many women new to strength training go wrong, because they try to climb the mountain too quickly, instead of taking it slowly and pacing themselves.

Strength training is pretty much the same as the metaphor above. Each of your strength workouts is a part of your overall goal, which is to increase the ov erall strength and body shape.

You cant achieve this instantly and if you try to, you risk falling into the trap of overtraining parts of your body, which can be hard to recover from. In many cases, you may not be aware of this until you unfortunately cause yourself serious health problems.

One of my female friends had a lot of problems with over training because she became obsessed with working out day in and day out without any rest whatsoever. She hid this very well as she worked out during her lunch break, but she was not able to hide the fact that she was getting too thin.

I pointed this out to her several times but as she seemed to get really upset about this, I began to avoid the topic. However, one day I got a call from her husband who said that she had been taken into the hospital because she malnourished.

It turned out that she has been doing this for months and her body could just not work properly as there was no energy to burn. I found out later that women who tend to have the mindset of I must work out every day tend to be more prone to over training.

It took my friend several months to recover but today she is fine. However, nowadays she always takes one day off between her workouts while she is also focusing on maintaining a proper diet with enough calories to help her body function properly.

Although you might not feel that you could experience the same problems as my friend, I still want you to be cautious and pay attention to over training because as I mentioned, you can easily overdo it without being aware!

Checking your weight from time to time is something every woman does, but how can you tell when you are overdoing this and it falls more in line with being an addiction rather than a helpful tool to measure your training results?

Women tend to have much harder time in controlling their relationship with the scale, as opposed to men. I know this from experience, because my wife used to fixate on her weight to the point where it almost becomes an addiction.

I know it can be hard to resist checking your weight often, but you will most likely demotivate yourself rather than improving your motivation. Heck, I was forced to hide the scale from my wife, which really upset her!

However, I felt that it was necessary because she was checking her weight in the morning, when she came home from work, after her workout and even when we were going to bed- which was complete madness.

But, when I think back on it, this problem actually occurred and escalated when she started doing strength training. She was often complaining that she had gained weight, despite the fact that she has been working out regularly and followed a controlled diet.

In my experience, this is a classic trap that that many women including my wife, fell into. They simply cant understand how the scale can show a higher number considering that they are working out regularly and this frustrates them.

I spent a lot of time calming down my wife and explaining that the reason why she seems to be gaining weight is not because she has actually gained fat, but when she works out her muscles, they absorb more water, thus displaying an inaccurate weight.

Although I want you to stop using the scale daily and to prevent it from becoming an addictive practice, I also want you to remember and keep in mind that strength training could possibly make you weigh more and show a completely inflated number when you step on the scale.

In fact, if I were you I would stop using the scale altogether, because you will just become anxious and demotivate yourself to continue training, while in reality you are likely more fit than ever, despite the scale not showing the number you expect.

Once my wife stopped checking her weight constantly, she has seen some great improvements and she often says: look how more sculptured Ive become and she is also very pleased with how her cellulite has disappeared, completely!
