20×20 (20×20.ie) is asking all sections of Irish society to show their stripes and pledge one small action to increase the visibility of women’s sport #CantSeeCantBe
Here is my contribution. I’m hoping to see more women lifting weights. The benefits for women are for example:
- Lose body fat. Weight training builds muscle, as lean muscle increases so does metabolism.
- Gain strength without bulking.
- Decrease risk of osteoporosis.
- Reduce risk of injury.
- Improve posture and reduce back pain.
- Enhance mood and reduce stress.
See you at the squat rack! 🙂
