Should women train different than man to gain muscle ?

This a common question many women concern about. If you just want to gain lean muscle and become shapely, but not big and mass, this article should give you some useful advices.

Actually, you needn't to worry about it very much. Studies have shown that women won't become such bulky or get very muscular like man, even if you have many weighted exercises. To make it clear, you need to know about which factors make the muscle built and increased. The hormone testosterone is the main element to help you gain muscle. In theory, women's testosterone levels are much lower than men's. Usually the levels in men are 200-1200 ng/dl while 15-70 ng/dl in women. So even if a man is in the lowest levels of testosterone, it will still be much higher than the averavage level of women. That is why I am here to say that you don't need to care more about it, just focuse on how to gain your lean muscle.

If you want to have good shape and curves, the light weights exercise will be not enough. Actually, you need to lift some heavy weights and make more presure on the muscle, not just perform endless reps. This may be different from the views of some TV or magazine media often suggest, but it is the truth. So don't have other things trouble yourself, just try to do more workout, make good diet plan and build lean muscle, gain your shape.
