Unlike men, fitness goals for women are largely divergent. Women experience pregnancies, have varying menstrual cycles and emotional setbacks due to the mere physicality of just being a woman.
In general, woman’s fitness goals are typically tailored towards there glutes, thighs, posture and overall lower body area since these areas signal health and fitness. To effectively ensure these body parts are maintained, fit and functional we must trian them frequently. Women don’t typically advance their fitness priorities to bodybuilding , powerlifting or the likes because these advents are often meant for men.
Women struggle to lift weights as effectively and as frequently as men. They can’t attain such a high level of physical muscularity because of their lack of physical strength compared to men and physical gender-based setbacks. Such activities are simply a strain on women. So the best method of training is the obvious alternative that is meant for women.

Squats and different leg exercise variations are ideal and a weekly 3-4 day program is adequate. Making do with a 2-day program is just enough as well. On each of these days, 3-4 exercises are ideal and should be performed with intent not just going through the movements. 2-3 sets of quality reps per exercise is enough to see noticeable gains and progress. Many people fall short of their fitness goals because they either do too little or too much. Many fall at upper end of the spectrum of doing too much volume, their volume to intensity ratio is often too high.
