Why Lift Weights

1. It will help you lose fat. When you lift weights, you build lean muscle, which is more metabolically active than fat; this means that you're going to be burning more calories throughout the day.

 

2. It will reduce your risk of injury. Strength training strengthens everything in your body, which keeps your body moving well on a regular basis.

 

3. It will help you sleep better. Who isn't tired after a gym session?

 

4. It will make you strong. Duh, right? When you lift weights on a regular basis, other things in life become easier as well. Carrying books, luggage, groceries, housework and yard work are just a few activities that will be simpler for you to do.

 

5. It will help you relieve stress. Relieving stress will help you think clearly and worry less.

 

6. Once you see all of the positive results, there is no going back. The benefits of weight lifting will give you the drive to keep lifting.

 

7. There is nothing better than an intense weight lifting session at the gym. You will feel happy, energetic, focused, accomplished and tough.
