Yes !! Muscle Mass is the key !!
🏋️‍♂️ Why More Women Should Do Strength Training
Strength training has many benefits for overall health. Women often tend to do cardiovascular exercise more often than strength training, but a combination of both is much better for health.
🏋️‍♂️ Build and maintain muscle
Muscle mass for women is very important, especially after the age of 30, as your muscle starts to deteriorate. This can lead to a loss of stability and weight gain as you get older.
🏋️‍♂️ Help maintain bone strength
Many women understand the importance of muscle mass, what many don’t realise is how important strength training is for bone strength and density. Strength training can help build bone density and strength for the long term, helping to avoid issues associated with conditions like osteoporosis. The more strength you can build and maintain through regular strength training, the better overall bone health you will have.
🏋️‍♂️ Strengthen and maintain your stability
As we get older our core strength can diminish, particularly after having children. As a result, we’re at increased risk of falls and stumbles. Strength training is the best way to maintain stability and balance by working on your core strength and overall muscle density. Having and maintaining a good level of strength is key to improving balance and avoiding those falls as women age. It has been proven that strength training helps maintain long term health by avoiding those balance issues in later life.
🏋️‍♂️ Assist in maintaining a healthy weight
Strength training not only helps build muscle but also helps kick-start and speed up your metabolism. Your metabolism is all about burning energy and using what you have. The more training you do, the faster your metabolism works, burning more kilojoules throughout the day. This means even when you aren’t working out, your metabolism is burning and you can maintain a healthier weight as well.
Strength training is important for everyone who wants to maintain a healthy lifestyle for both now and into the future.
Stay active,it’s great to be fit but don’t forget the importance of strength!!
