Many women will focus only on cardio to burn fat and they don't realize that with the right training program they can actually change the way their body burns more fat.

You have probably seen women at the gym that spend all the time on the cardio machines and still look the same too.

In order to further understand why weight training is great for women to get lean,lose belly fat and speed up your metabolism is that your muscle is comprised of different types of fibers slow and fast twitched.

For example if you do more endurance activities like long-distance running or swimming your muscles would be comprised of mostly slow twitch fibers and if you do mostly weight training and sprinting exercises your body will have more fast twitch muscle fibers.

Now you might be asking why should I care,well if you want to burn more fat you should,especially stubborn belly fat where women over 30 always tell me that is there most troubled area.

Think about it, you're doing your long leisurely jogging and you're eating healthy and that stubborn fat just seems to stay there but you think because you are over 30 that it's you're age.

Well, your mistaken it's just that you don't have the right type of training program.

One of the secrets that I share with women is a weight training program that can actually create more fast twitch muscle fibers which burn more fat especially the stubborn belly fat.

How do you switch your body in a higher fat-burning mode?

Through high-volume training your body literally becomes as fat-burning machine. If you want to burn more body fat, I suggest that you do high-rep work using heavy poundages.

Work out intensely so that you are breathing hard each time you finish a set. Forget the tiny weights and high reps because it just won't make your body a fat-burning machine.

Another great way to train so that you are melting belly fat is a metabolic workout. This workout trains your hormones in such a way that you will see the difference in fat loss. For this type of workout you can take your resistance exercises and integrate them with interval cardio.

Once women start seeing the results they never go back to their old ineffective ways of training again.

Also make sure that you are eating enough to support the muscle and burn the fat if your calories are too low then this approach will be counterproductive.
