Strength Training is much more important than cardio especially as we get older!
When it comes to strength training, many people might have a negative association to body building and having a lot of muscle.
Building muscle is not easy, however as we age it becomes necessity. Looking good and being lean is great, however if we shift our focus we can see that muscles do so much more for our health and longevity.
Most people want to be able to enjoy activities with their friends and loved ones for many years to come. So what we teach clients in the gym have a true carryover to real life activities such as:
- walking without pain ✅
- being upright ✅
- being able to stand up from the floor ✅
- bending ✅
- picking heavy things up ✅
- carry heavy objects ✅
- walking uphill without shortness of breath ✅
- ability to jump ✅
- more muscles you have, the higher your metabolism ✅
