In ZEN we do not tire of repeating it, the muscle not only has a structural function (as a support for bones and viscera), but also develops an important endocrine activity : it participates in the release into the bloodstream of certain hormones that affect caloric expenditure . That is, the more muscular you are, the more calories you will consume, even at rest.

And, no, no matter how hard they push, women will never develop a Schwarzenegger-like musculature unless they resort to 'chemistry'.

Based on the fact that the first thing we must do before starting a training program is to put ourselves in the hands of a qualified professional who will design a plan for us according to our physical condition, age, objectives, etc., we propose a series of exercises to work the musculature of the key points of our anatomy at home and using the least possible material.

We started by mastering the key exercise technique to strengthen the upper body: flexion . Martín Giacchetta teaches us how to do it from the beginner level.

The iron is another of the basics in strength routines. Magali Dalix teaches us how to make them.

For the buttocks, nothing better than working with elastic bands. Noe Todea shows us how to do it.

And Caro Prato teaches us more exercises to influence that area.

The simple (and cheap) accessory that will put your buttocks like a stone

WARNING: It is essential to consult a professional about the convenience of starting a training program. Also listen to the calls of our body and stop before any symptoms of discomfort, dizziness or pain.
