  • Women’s Muscle & Strength ebook
  • Online continuing education exam
Women’s Muscle & Strength offers guidance from Betina Gozo Shimonek, a trainer with over a decade of experience training thousands of women from all walks of life. Her science-based approach to strength training offers realistic guidance on how to assess, plan, and execute effective strength-focused workouts.

Women’s Muscle & Strength is packed with 80 exercises that cover every area of the body. Exercises are broken down by movement type to help you better understand how and why to put them together, as well as what types of movements are associated with major muscles of the body. Full-color photos provide clear instruction for each exercise. And because each body is different, you’ll find modifications, progressions, variations, safety reminders, and tips to help choose what works best for your clients.

You will also have access to 12-week programs, with a total of 18 workouts, that you can immediately put into action. The programs each have a different focus:
  • Gain strength
  • Build sculpted muscle
  • Get lean
  • Improve muscle endurance
After reading the ebook, certified professionals can take the companion CE exam to earn continuing education credits.

Learning Objectives
  • Explain the benefits of strength training as well as the precautions women should take if strength training during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
  • Identify basic strength training equipment.
  • Compare and contrast each plane of motion.
  • Describe each type of muscle contraction.

  • Explain how to assess body composition.
  • Demonstrate various carry, grip, and antimovement exercises; knee dominant and hip dominant exercises; horizontal and vertical push exercises; horizontal and vertical pull exercises; and total body and rotational exercises.
