Statistics show that the difference between works outs for women and workouts for men is the nature of repetitions and weight applied in doing it. The exercises as well as the equipment will always remain the same. For this reason, it has been increasingly necessary for fitness professionals and trainers to highlight some of the routine workouts that are specific to women and more recently, due to time and cost pressures, routines that can be done by women in their own homes. Explained below are 4 easy, free or low cost options that can be done outside of the gym.
1. Swimming
Swimming for women has been termed as one the best ways to stretch up the muscles and hence provide a virtually none resistant work out routine for women. Since the water is fluid, you do not have to fight against the water as you would have to when using weights and allows for gentle exercise and movements which a lot of women prefer. With that said swimming is a healthy practice that adds to your already upright posture as well as giving you further strength and flexibility to enable you to do other daily chores.
2. Physical Work Outs
Physical work outs can flexibly be done at home without the need of visiting the nearest health fitness centre. Typically, these types of workouts are known as push ups, pull ups, squats, sits ups and anything else you can think of which can be done in the comfort of your own home. Always learn to maximize on your energy any time you feel energetic because since you are on your own, you will not have a trainer or motivator to push you on. And of course, you can do any of these exercises to music. Write up a little schedule for yourself consisting of the exercise you know and perhaps give yourself a goal to complete them within the duration of a song or album. Better still, get hold of one of the home workout DVD box sets such as Turbo Fire or ChaLEAN Extreme which are fitness programs which are instructed by women who want to get lean, fit and healthy.
3. Chores
This may seem laughable, but think about it for a second. How often do you feel tired after you have done your chores around the home? Vacuuming is not easy especially or those with young kids and also factor in the energy needed to carry the vacuum up and down the stairs. Mopping floors provides a great workout for your arms especially when you isolate your arms from your back when doing it. What about cleaning the windows! Again, a great exercise for the arms and shoulders which although is not heavy work, is great for things like burning fat and improved dexterity.
4. Sex
Not trying to sound naughty, but most people who have sex regularly have been termed to be healthier than their counterparts who rarely have it. During sexual intercourse, it is common knowledge than both you and your partner take different positions. Research has shown that 70% of the positions taken by women are more of a work out routine for women than just virtual fantasy.
