Will Weight Training Make Me Bulky?

Some women may be concerned about getting too bulky or muscular from weight training. Though you will gain muscle if you use weight training fitness equipment, women lack the testosterone needed to become bulky like body builders. Unless you take artificial enhancements, you don't need to worry about becoming too muscular. So stick to your leg, arm and ab workout and use your new fitness equipment regularly. Here are just some of the benefits that come from weight training fitness equipment:

Increased metabolic rate, due to increased muscle tissue
Better coordination and balance
Decreased body fat
Increased bone mass and decreased risk of osteoporosis
Stronger joints and ligaments
