Strength & resistance training is beneficial to both men and women of all ages! It has been shown to increase bone density, relieve arthritis pain, improve the body’s regulation of blood sugar levels, reduce obesity, prevent back pain, and increase your metabolism. Muscle is an active tissue that requires energy all the time. So the higher the percentage of muscle you have in your body, the more energy you will be burning. In other words, a person who has a high proportion of muscle relative to body fat will burn more calories at rest than someone who has a lower muscle percentage.

Did you know that 1 pound of muscle can burn 50 calories/hour during exercise and 10 calories/hour at rest. Fat burns 2-6 calories/hour. Gaining 5 pounds of muscle equates to 1.8 pounds/week of fat loss doing nothing! It goes without saying that strength training is an integral part of almost every workout plan and is very useful in obtaining one’s fitness goals!
