1)  There is not difference in workouts between men and women – Contrary to what you may believe, there is no difference between a man and women’s muscle.  With that being said, there is no difference between a female or male workout program.  However, a man and woman’s goals need to be the same so that an identical plan will work for both.  It should go without saying that weight amounts will differ from male to female.

2)  Commitment – If you want to achieve your goals you have to put forth a consistent and sustained effort.  Once you have a plan you have to stick to it.  In the least your workout program should entail you exercising at least 3 times per week.  In an ideal world, this would stretch to 5 or 6 days.

3)  Variety – Do you know what the definition of insanity is?  Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome.  This is no different when we exercise.  You’ll find that you get to a point when stop seeing results.  If you have variety in your plan, this won’t become an issue.

4)  A high level of intensity – This is like that old saying, “You put crap in you’ll get crap out”, or something like that.  Another words, if you go about your workout program in a lackadaisical manner then that’s the kind of results you’ll see.  You need to push yourself if your going to see results and attain your goals.

5)  Make sure you use proper form – This should go without saying but there are plenty of women out there who are just sloppy.  When working out proper form is key to not only achieving optimal results but more importantly, avoiding injury.  The last thing you need when your starting to see results from your hard work is a injury set back.

So those are the 5 key principles that should be followed when looking for a women’s workout.  There more like common sense really if you think about it.  When you discover a program that entail’s all these attributes you’ll be well on your way to a better you.
