Benefits of Strength Training

While aerobic activity primarily benefits your heart and circulatory system, strength training does this and so much more. Strength training will add lean body mass (muscle and bone) while improving your heart and circulatory system. The more lean body mass you have, the more calories you burn every minute of every day for the rest of your life. 3 lbs of new muscle tissue burns more fat daily than a 1 mile run!
From: Living Strong

Do not be afraid of heavy strength training! There are numerous benefits to regular strength training and It can be very powerful in reducing the signs and symptoms of numerous diseases and chronic conditions, among them: arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, back pain, depression.

"strong is the new skinny"


There is no such thing as “firming and toning.” There is only stronger and weaker.
