STRENGTH 1st🥇
Don’t get us wrong…
Cardio, Mobility, Nutrition, and Sleep/Stress management all play a role in keeping your body functioning optimally throughout your life.
Yet, WITHOUT STRENGTH TRAINING, you:
❌ lose bone density
❌ increase symptoms of depression and anxiety
❌ decrease your metabolic health
❌ destabilize joints
❌ increase the rate of sarcopenia (muscle mass loss)
❌ increase all-cause mortality
So while the other components of health and wellness matter, Strength training ranks at the 🔝 for longevity because it protects the things that decide whether you stay independent and healthy as you age.
The evidence is Strong 💪🏽(pun intended)
