Once more sorry for the dumb questions , if i had my way i will just put a 120lbs bergan on her back and take her for a run lol |
If you can get her towards the free weights then yes. But alot of women feel intimidated in the free weight area (hence why alot of gyms, certainly commercial gyms, have matted areas with lighter Dbs (1kg to 10kg) and lighter Barbells) - they think they are either going to be perved on, or feel scared by the grunting etc etc
Supps...
Well firstly just make sure her diet is good. Only really think about supps when she needs them I'd say.
As Cal said - protein powder, EFAs in the diet, maybe BCAA's and Glutamine before morning cardio, caffeine (coffee) pre workout. Add in stims (Sida / ECA) only really as a last resort - see what a diet and training can acheive first.
