Weights for Women

You can buy this shirt at Zazzle.com.
Weight-lifting is an essential part of working out, especially as we age. The article "9 Reasons Women Should Lift Weights" by Jenna Bergen from Prevention.com breaks down the reasons this is necessary for all women. Cardio and flexibility are great but they aren't enough; strength training is a must.

I pulled together a few exercise routines to use, some of which I do and some of which I want to try out. Mix them in with what you already do or if working out isn't your thing, maybe these are an easy way to start.
