Publisher's Synopsis
Body sculpting, also called weight training, resistance training, or strength training, is a form of exercise which uses external weight or resistance or your own bodyweight to stress the muscles. The end result is newly toned or sculpted muscles. Body sculpting can help you get in shape, tone the body and lose weight. The basics of body sculpting are simple, even for beginners and it doesn't require a lot of equipment.
