Weight training has so many benefits and keeps you young.
I often get told I look like I’m between 32-35 years old, and I truly believe weight training has a lot to do with staying youthful.
I’ve been training since I was 16 years old and I am turning 44 in 2 months time.

Here are some health benefits that can be achieved through resistance training
