The Benefits of Strength Training include:
1. Improved metabolism – Muscle burns far more calories than fat. The weaker your muscles are, the fewer calories they’ll burn, and the more weight you’re likely to gain. Strength training builds muscles that burn calories, and that controls your weight.
2. Reduced risk of disease and chronic conditions — Strong muscles reduce the uncomfortable symptoms associated with arthritis, diabetes, back pain. Strength training even relieves symptoms of depression.
3. Stronger bones — Tendons connect muscles to bones. Strength training improves bone health because as muscles contract, they pull on tendons, which pull on bones — and that reduces your risk of osteoporosis. If you’re an adult over 50, you need a strength training program.
4. Improved balance – Strong, flexible muscles reduce your risk of falls. Let a professional fitness trainer from EIF show you the safe and effective way to perform strengthening exercises.
5. Improved blood glucose levels — Strength training dramatically improves the body’s ability to regulate glucose in individuals with type II diabetes, a result that compares to taking diabetes medication.
6. A stronger heart — Strength training increases lean muscle mass, and that reduces heart disease risk. Strength training is an important part of cardiac rehabilitation.
7. A better night of sleep — Strength training can help you fall asleep quickly and with fewer middle-of-the-night wake-ups.
