Strength training can reduce the risk of injuries by improving bone density and connective tissue strength. Increasing bone density will prevent bone fractures and serious issues such as osteoporosis. In effect, the bone density provides better joint support and stability.

Improves Mental Health
Participating in strength training enables the body to release denorphins, the body's natural mood boosters. The endorphins alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, improving cognitive function.

Burns Calories
During strength training, calories are burned from building muscle mass. Muscle mass burns more than fat. For some individuals, building muscle mass increases resting metabolism. After a workout, calories are burned during recovery and muscle tissue repair.

IMPROVES STRENGTH
As aging progresses, muscles strength continues to decline, negatively impacting overall health. With the changes in muscle mass throughout the lifespan, preserving muscle strength becomes crucial. High intensity at lower frequencies or lowe intensity with higher frequencies will help improve muscle strength. Developing a structured routine will encourage consistancy and progression.
