- MUSCLES - THE SHAPE OF YOUR BODY.

Muscles: Do we really need them?
Yes. Definitely - yes, for some very important reasons.


Look Thinner
Muscles will make you look thinner. It's true!
Muscle takes up less space than far does, so pound for pound, if you have more muscle than someone who weights the same as you, you can be at least two sizes smaller.

Eat More Without Getting Fat
Muscles allow you to eat more food without getting fat because muscle is the only body material that is active. Muscle actually "scintillates" (the muscle fibers vibrate ever so slightly, rather than lie stagnant like bone and fat), and it does so twenty-four hours a day - even when you are sitting in a chair or sleeping in you r bed.
The fact is, once you put muscle on your body, you will burn an additional 20 to 30 calories an hour at least!

Beat The Aging Process
Every year after the age of twenty-five, muscles atrophy a small amount. No one knows exactly how much - but experts say it is about 5 to 10 percent a year. If you do nothing to prevent this normal muscle attrition, in ten years from now, your body shape will have significantly changed. By working with weights, you can put back the muscle that you lost every year after twenty-five (especially if you know what you are doing)- and then some!

Strong Bones
When you work with weights, you are not only putting stress on the muscles, you are putting stress on the bone as well, and you are making the bone stronger and thicker as you make the muscle stronger and bigger.
This should be great news to everyone over thirty, especially women, who are losing bone tissue to the point of danger and possibly osteoporosis.

Be Strong and Sexy!Finally, muscle is sexy! It makes you feel sensual and sexy. You don't want to look flabby, so you need muscles. It puts curves and definition in all the right places. And for women, don't worry - you won't end up looking like the female "Arnold". You can have a firm, toned and feminine body - all at the same time!
