Weight training program for girls in the gym, at home. Exercise table, reps and sets

In modern fitness, much has been done to increase the effectiveness of classes, and special
training programs have been developed
for
women and men.

The main goal is to achieve hyperplasia of the myofibrillar apparatus (increased muscle contractility) or hypertrophy (decreased). Such exercises are not used to increase the entire muscle mass, but to improve certain groups of them.

The rules and features of gaining muscle mass for girls

To gain muscle mass, you need to eat well and properly – this is the main rule that applies, despite the fact that a woman exhausts herself with training.

The girl needs to be engaged in such a way as to gain the necessary mass, and not to increase the amount of fat reserves and muscles.

It’s easier for guys, because they strive to achieve a muscular body, and eliminate excess body fat by using special trainings and nutrition programs.

Girls are afraid to use the mass gain program – in their opinion, a muscle mass may appear that looks more attractive to men, rather than to a fragile female body.
This assumption is erroneous and not true, because a masculine figure can only be achieved with the help of sports pharmacology.

The mass training program for girls
involves the achievement of such indicators – 70/30%, where muscle tissue predominates. That is, with a set of 22 pounds of weight, 7 of them should be muscles, and 7 pounds – with adipose tissue. The body will not look pumped, but will become beautiful and attractive.

Deadlift

Exercise helps to work out the legs, lower body, thigh muscles. Also, a minor impact is on the back. It is carried out as follows:

• the exercise should be performed exclusively with a flat back and slight deflection in the lumbar, and the legs are bent at the knees;
• grabbing the barbell with both hands, you need to raise it with slow movements, bending your arms at the elbows;
• each run should consist of 10-15 lifts with a 5-minute break;
• when taking the “back to the floor” position, the main load is directly received by the back muscles;
• you need to straighten your legs and perform the same list of lifts as in the previous version;
• when adopting the position “thigh to the floor”, then during the training the gluteus muscles and legs are involved, conducting similarly to the previous ones;
• when working with the barbell, it is important to remember that it should perform its movements only along a vertical path, it is also important that it passes as close as possible to the hips and legs.

The back should not be rounded during the exercise. Beginners should not immediately begin to exhaust the body with a barbell. First of all, it is necessary to strengthen the muscles of the legs and back so as not to harm the musculoskeletal system.

Shoulder Squats

These exercises simultaneously involve the muscles of the back and lower body. Especially the load falls on the muscles above the knee and buttocks. In fact, they are not complex, but many, even experienced visitors to gyms do them wrong.

1. 
   Exercise begins directly with the back of the pelvis, then the network visually it looks as if a person is going to sit on an invisible chair.
2. At the same time, the main weight of the rod should be shifted exactly to the heels , since this position allows you to provide maximum load on the quadriceps zone, thereby activating their full strength potential.
3. 
   Next, the squats begin , the depth of which can be up to the bend of the knees by 90 °, and lower. For beginners, it is enough to apply the first version of the squat.
   
4. In the process of doing the squat, you need to look straight, your back should be completely flat.
5. 
   Raising should be carried out focusing heels on the floor. This item is the most common mistake, since most exercising girls try to get out of the squat, resting on their socks. Such a technique completely changes the biomechanics of the exercise, significantly increases the risk of injury and destabilizes the level of balance.
6. 
   Being at the top point, it is forbidden to fully extend the joints of the knees, as they should remain slightly bent. This position allows you to minimize the degree of load, traumatic for the knee joints.
7. You need to inhale and proceed to the next repetition (no more than 20 times in one workout).
8. Squats should be performed evenly and smoothly, without sudden movements in all amplitude sections.

Leg Press

The weight training program for girls
necessarily includes this exercise, which allows you to ensure full load for all muscle groups located in the lower area of the body.  Sequencing:

• to perform the leg press, you need to put them widely, while the feet should be turned outward;
• this exercise will direct the entire load to the inner zone of the buttocks and thighs;
• so that the whole effect falls on the buttocks, you need to install the legs in the upper part of the platform, while spreading them apart, directing the feet to the sides;
• This exercise is ideal for femoral biceps and buttocks;
• repeat the press 15-20 times with intervals of 5-10 seconds;
• 
  for training the lower zone of the quadriceps, the classic version of the bench press is used : the platform should be placed in a perpendicular position relative to the athlete, the session is performed with a very short ampl
  itude, the number of repetitions is 15-20 times with breaks of 15 seconds;
• the horizontal type of press is designed to work out the gallon head of the quadriceps, that is, with its help you can achieve a muscular and volumetric thigh: the exercise consists in increasing the motor amplitude by several inch, repeating 15-20 times with 5-minute breaks.

Lunges

This exercise should be done in stages.

Improper training can result in injuries and sprains:

• pick up dumbbells and take a step forward;
• body position should be as follows: the thigh is parallel to the floor, and the location of the sock does not extend beyond the level of the knee;
• go down a little;
• at the same time, the leg located behind should be bent, creating an angle of 90 °, the knee should not touch the floor;

• push off from the support with the front foot and return to its original position;
• the same exercise should be carried out with the other leg;
• repetition rate – 10 times on each leg.

• after returning the bar in a controlled position and slowly;
• repeat 10-15 times.

Narrow grip bench press

• equip the barbell and lie down on the bench;
• hands should be positioned already shoulder width;
• move the projectile from the rack and lift it up, while it should be on a par with the chest;
• inhaling, lowering, not laying on the chest, but touching it a little (the accuracy and location of the elbows are important – they should be along the body);
• on exhalation, the bar is raised to its original position;
• repeat 10 times.

Biceps Bench Press

• equip the bar, take a grip at shoulder width, legs should be at the same distance from each other;
• straighten up, bend your knees slightly;
• palms to turn forward, and elbows – practically pressed to the body;
• tighten the abdominal muscles;
• start lifting the barbell without moving your shoulders, but using only the traction force of the biceps and forearm;
• you need to perform the exercise until there is a feeling of contraction of the biceps;
• lowering weight it is important to make an entrance, and lifting – exhale.

Sitting dumbbell bench press

This is a simple exercise, so even a beginner can easily deal with it:

• lie face down on the simulator, place your legs under the rollers – the back surface of the ankles must touch them;
• the legs are parallel to each other, the knees hang slightly from the bench, and the waist is located on its bend;
• the pelvis is well pressed to the bench;
• to grab the handrails with your hands, looking at the floor, and tighten your buttocks and abs;
• inhale and hold your breath for a couple of seconds, pulling the rollers to the buttocks and not tearing off your hips;
• you need to exhale at the stage of passing the most complex amplitude point;
• make a delay of 1-2 accounts in the upper position, it is important to maintain maximum muscle contraction;
• controlled and leisurely lower his legs;
• repeat 10 to 15 times.

Push ups

Despite the ease, this exercise is quite effective and is divided into several types:

1. 
   From the wall – rest your hands on the wall and slowly bend and unbend your arms to the maximum. In this case, the position of the back and knees should be even.
2. 
   Using the support – for this you can use a fitball, bench or ordinary chair. Place your legs close to each other and begin lowering the body to the support used.

Training Nutrition

The first rule of mass gain in the female body is frequent and proper nutrition, and the girl should eat more than before. However, you need to consume foods that have a large amount of complex carbohydrates.

Do not forget that you need to gain muscle mass, not fat.

How to increase the load

It is not necessary to overstrain the body with exercises in the first days of training – this will only make it worse. The weight of the inventory and the number of approaches need to be increased gradually.  Otherwise, non-observance of the mass training program for girls will end with a pinched nerve, tearing and stretching of muscles, etc. It is important to approach the trainings wisely and confidently head towards the set goal.
