WHY YOU SHOULD BE WEIGHT TRAINING 💪🏼🏋🏽
Contributes to weight loss- Weight training when done right provides the potential to burn a lot of calories. When performing an exercise that require a lot of muscle to work your body is then required to provide those muscle with energy needed to perform those exercises and that energy comes from the calories you eat. So shortly put the more muscle you have and use to perform an exercise the more energy(calories) you will use and burn through.
Increased strength- increasing strength can help improve many aspects of your daily life, for example it makes tasks such as carrying your shopping or doing the gardening that little bit easier. Or maybe you like your Sunday league football and you’ve found yourself getting pushed around you want to improve your athletic or sporting performance by improving your full body strength.
Decreased risk of injury- Strength training helps improve the strength, range of motion, and mobility of your muscles, ligaments, and tendons. This can help to strength around major joints like your knees, hips, and ankles to provide additional protection against injury.
Stronger bones- when weight training exercises put temporary stress on your bones, sending a message to bone-building cells to take action and rebuild bones stronger. Having strong bones reduces your risk of osteoporosis, fractures, and falls, this becomes more important as you age.
Improves posture- Being sat in one position all day like sitting at your computer contributes to the weakening of the stabilizer muscles in your torso, which play a major role in your posture. By regularly weight training you can improve the endurance of the muscles which contribute highly to good posture.
