Composing a Workout Program for Women

[adrotate group=”1″]Today we will compose a 3-Day Workout Program for Women who are just the beginners in a gym and fitness, as a whole. Women, who want to shape their body for summer time. They want to get this fit, strong, beautiful body with a muscular relief, which will emphasize on their femininity.

Who said that women have to be weak and spend their life on the kitchen, forever cooking?

Every women needs to try her best to stay in a good shape, the same as every man does, to live more complete and happy life, to be more attractive for men and especially, for that special one in your life – your second half.

3-Day Workout Plan for Women

Since we have done the men’s workout program for beginners, we decided to be fair and compose a workout plan for women as well.

Therefore, today we will compose a big 3-Day Workout Program designed specifically for women, who practice at the gym or fitness centers, trying to lose weight for summer and become more fit and lean.

Just to be clear, the workout plan that we will be talking about calls a 3-Day Workout Plan because it designed for a 3-Day practice a week (ex. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Every workout you will work on specific parts of the body, so at the end of the week you will be sure to completely pump up every muscle in your body.

The program is very useful for women who are just in the beginning of their fitness journey, because you won’t overwork every workout, but evenly divide the work throughout the week to make sure every muscle in your body becomes more shaped and fit. [adrotate group=”2″]

Also, this program will help you to look overall fit and lean, not like some bodybuilders men who work on specific muscles every time, forgetting about the rest of the body.  The purpose of our 3-Day Workout Plan is to get that lean and fit body, and to improve health which is very important as well.

3-Day Workout Plan for Women – First Month

Even though the program is designed for beginners at the gym, there should not (okay, almost should not) be breaks between the sets.

You can have a break after third or fourth set of exercise just to have a sip of water! Also, drinking during the workout is another question, which we have answered for you in our article “Is drinking water during physical activities good for you?”

Women’s Workout Program for Losing Weight

If you are working out for the purpose of maximum weight loss, getting rid of “muffin top”, and just shape your body, then we have one suggestion for you. You should not drink more than 2-3 glass of water during the workout.

Why so little? The answer is easy: because during the workout your body sweats and you start losing weight. However, if you drink a lot of water during the workout, you replenish the lost water and the result in the first month of working out will be almost unnoticeable.

How to Lose Weight Quickly by Working Out

[adrotate group=”3″]In other words, in order to lose weight, get rid of a “muffin top”, and make your body “fit”, you have to shred it first. It’s all just medicine and physics – when you burn calories the formation of water and energy is happening.

That’s why, when you limit yourself with water, your body starts using that old fat in order to replenish lost water and calories.

But overall, you should control your body yourself, felling it, and if you feel really thirsty then, of course, don’t hesitate to drink some because it might be dangerous for your health.

We hope you understood the basics of our 3-Day Workout Plan for the purpose of losing weight, and now we dive into the program itself.

Individual Workout Program for Women

Day One: Back and Chest

  • Warm up: 10-15 minutes running on a treadmill, or cardio cycling. After little cardio you can do some stretching to rest a little bit;
