As Ronnie Coleman once said, “Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but don’t nobody wants to lift no heavy ass weights.” However, lifting weights doesn’t mean you have to be a bodybuilder. It’s an investment in your health, and just 30-60 minutes of appropriate resistance training per week can help increase muscle mass, slow aging, and shield you from injury and sickness. Resistance training can also help fight sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle or adverse muscle changes that accrue over a lifetime, and protect you from neurodegeneration. So, don’t be afraid to lift those heavy ass weights – your body will thank you later.
