Why strength training is important?

Did you know that :
Every 10 years of your adult life you lose approximately 5 pounds of muscle and gain 14 pounds of fat. Losing as little as a half a pound of muscle can result in weight gain in form of fat.
Because muscle is active tissue and makes high calorie demands, losing it will put you at a disadvantage. Less muscle means a lower metabolic rate. Research has revealed that the average adult experiences a slight decline in their metabolic rate every year, which exactly parallels their loss of muscle..
A fact that might encourage you to strength train: If 2 to 6 pounds of muscle are added to your body, your metabolic rate will increase by 250 to 500 calories per day, regardless of activity level (imagine losing fat while you sleep, you can do this when you strength train!). I don’t know about you, but raising the metabolic rate while sleeping..that appeals to me!! There is a reason Chalean says "muscle is the fountain of youth". Not only do you look good when you have muscle but you can eat more. WHo does not want to beable to eat more food. That is the one down fall of being on a diet. People always complain that they are hungry. Well here is an idea folks Pump some Iron. Oh and ladies guess what it won't bulk you up. That is a misconseption. Lifting weights is a good thing. yOu will not bulk up you will get smaller. muscle is more compact then fat. Need help picking a program to start with just ask. I have several that can really start you down the right track.
