Why Do Resistance Training? Top 6 Reasons!
We all want to have a great looking body. Resistance training is the way to get there. Most people know that but they just don't know what to do to get there. Sometimes called weight training or total body workout resistance training involves a total body workout using weights and resistance machines on a regular basis working all the muscles in the body.
There are some mistaken and wrong ideas about resistance training. True athletes are trying to train, gain strength and build up their bodies with this kind of training but it is for everyone to enjoy. The body will not grow bigger with resistance training but will certainly get stronger and make what you are doing easier.
This training is recommended for everyone, even seniors who want to get fit and lean. It will build and tone all the muscles for a great overall look. Elderly people can use free weights they can handle or use the seated machine resistance training apparatus found in every gym.
Resistance training is basically a battle between the muscles in the body going up against the weight of the lift you are lifting. When you do resistance training on a bench, using dumbbells or a barbell you will increase the size of the nerve cells which help in the workings of the muscle to get stronger.
If you are overweight or have a medical condition you should consult your doctor before starting any type of training. You will need to know what exercises to do and what machines to use for best results and this you must learn from a personal trainer or a staff member of the gym. You might need to do some basic exercises to get your body conditioned to lifting weights at all.
For those on a limited budget you can do exercises using your own body weight as resistance by doing pushups and sit-ups. These types of exercises are often the best ways to get started before using the heavier weights.
The 6 reasons for doing resistance training;
1. Improve Bone Mineral Density Our bodies are unique, especially the bones in that they are constantly remodeling. They are at their peak during puberty where the tissue is always breaking down and building up at the same time. When we get older the bones are not remodeling as often and that's when problems arise in bone density. Post menopausal women are at the most risk here.
The hormones in the body usually support the mineral density in bones and so to combat the fact of fewer hormones we need to be more physically active. This is where resistance training is very helpful.
2. You will become stronger The more you exercise with resistance training the stronger you will become in both the muscles and the structure of the bones.
3. You will become more mobile doing activities As your body becomes stronger and is capable of carrying more weight you will be able to do activities that are more strenuous in nature. You will be happier and you will have a much better overall lifestyle.
4. Less Body Fat Workouts of any kind will help to lose weight, but a god resistance training program will help you lose unwanted fat much quicker. Because of this weight loss you will look toned, leaner and stronger in all aspects of your body.
5. Seniors will feel healthier Growing old can often bring on all kinds of challenges. Resistance training can help reduce some risks that come with age and also just improve overall health and well-being. They will be able to do more things on their own reducing the risk of injury and making them more independent.
6. A better stronger Heart This kind of exercise can reduce the heart rate and lower blood pressure. The benefit is reduced heart disease. This training must be done correctly for the most benefit. You must schedule this on a regular basis showing commitment and consistancy. Follow a schedule your doctor or trainer approves of or you might not enjoy it and worst of all you might even injure yourself in the process.
The most important thing is to start slow and work up. Do one thing at a time ant work up to a more strenuous schedule. You will see the results of gained strength, mobility and an overall lean look you and your friends and family will be proud of.
