    Good job. Great going that is! After reading this at many places I feel I need to incorporate strength training in my schedule.

    Well done!Yes strength training will help to lose a lot of weight over a period of time.It seems for girls,physio in my gym suggests we should do more repetitions with less weights.Strength training is crucial to weight control, because individuals who have more muscle mass have a higher metabolic rate. Muscle is active tissue that consumes calories while stored fat uses very little energy. Strength training can provide up to a 15% increase in metabolic rate, which is enormously helpful for weight loss and long-term weight control. You burn more when you replace every pound of fat with a muscle!
