Strong, Not Skinny: Why Strength Training Is a Total Game-Changer for Women

Hey there!

Soooo.. If you don't know me - I’m Izzy, a Personal Trainer and nutritionist based in Surrey, and a strength training superfan. I've worked with women for over a decade, and I can tell you this: strength training is one of the most empowering things you can do for your body — and your brain.

Still think it’s not for you? Let’s change that.

💪 Muscle Isn’t Just About Aesthetics — It’s About PowerStrong, not skinny, Personal Trainer based in cobham

Of course, muscle helps you look leaner and more toned — but the real magic? It's what muscle does behind the scenes. Think:

• Boosted metabolism

• Higher energy levels

• Better posture and joint support

• Fewer injuries and aches

When women train for strength, they stop chasing the scale and start chasing progress — and that’s where the motivation sticks. Strong, not skinny, Personal Trainer based in cobham

🔥 Muscle = Fat Loss Machine

Here’s a secret: if your goal is fat loss, building muscle should be your top priority. Muscle increases your basal metabolic rate (BMR), which means you burn more calories doing nothing.

Cardio is great, but lifting weights is how you change your shape, not just your weight.

🧠 Hormones, Aging & Confidence — Let’s Talk Long Term

Strength training isn't just for now — it’s for your future. As we age, muscle mass naturally decreases, affecting everything from bone density to hormonal balance to mental health.

Lifting helps:

• Combat hormonal changes (hello, menopause!)

• Support bone health

• Boost mood and reduce anxiety

• Improve sleep and confidence
