Ep 006: Like it Or Not - Here is Why You Need Strength Training


Listen Later

"The best type of exercise to do is the one you like the most." Have you heard that advice before? It's true that if you like what you're doing, you're more likely to be consistent, which is hugely important! 

But there is one other problem to consider: after age 30, physically inactive people can lose up to 3-5% of their muscle mass each decade. So, whether you like it or not, strength training needs to be part of your exercise routine.

In today's quick tip episode, we're going to dive into what that means, including:
- How you can combat muscle loss as you age
- Why strength training is essential
- Three reasons people are nervous about lifting weights
- How much strength training you need to do
- What types of equipment to use
