Maintain muscle tissue
Around the age of 30, growth hormones decrease significantly in the body. Because of this, you could lose around 8-10% of your muscle tissue every decade. Muscles are the basis of your metabolism, so if your muscles decrease by 8-10%, your metabolism will also decrease by 8-10%. By doing strength training twice a week, you will change that 8-10% to ONLY 1-2% every ten years. This means that if you just train twice a week, at age 80 you will be 5-10% less than the person you were at age 30!!
​
Increase in strength
Increased strength allows you to lift heavier objects. Shortly after starting a strength training program, you will find that everyday tasks seem much easier. This translates into your personal life on many levels. Consider lifting 20 pounds at the gym and then coming home to lift your child 20 pounds. Wow, what a great workout!
​
Improved bone health
Strength training is effective in increasing bone density and strengthening tendons and ligaments. Developing strong bones reduces the risk of developing osteoporosis and decreases the risk of bone fractures
​
Control body fat
Building muscle actually helps burn calories more efficiently. Did you know that muscle burns three times more calories than fat?! The more muscle tone you have, the more your metabolism will increase.
​
Reduce the risk of injury
Improving muscle strength decreases the risk of falls and other related injuries. Developing strong bones and muscles can help reduce the severity of falls. Increased strength will also make your body more resistant to injury and general pain.
