Strength training builds more than muscle.

Resistance training helps you make improvements in:

• Physical performance and movement control
• Walking speed and functional independence
• Insulin sensitivity and blood-sugar management
• Blood pressure and cholesterol
• Bone mineral density
• Cognitive abilities and self-esteem

Resistance training may also help reduce discomfort associated with low-back pain, arthritis and fibromyalgia.

The goal isn’t simply to lift more weight. It’s to build a body that remains strong, capable and independent through every stage of life.

Resistance training is about much more than building bigger muscles.

A review published in Current Sports Medicine Reports explains that inactive adults may lose approximately 3% to 8% of their muscle mass every decade. This loss can be accompanied by a lower resting metabolic rate and increased body fat.

Research reviewed in the article found that 10 weeks of resistance training may:

• Increase lean weight by approximately 1.4 kg
• Increase resting metabolic rate by 7%
• Reduce fat weight by approximately 1.8 kg

Individual results will vary, but the larger message is clear: maintaining muscle is an important part of protecting your health as you age.

Resistance training isn’t just exercise. It’s an investment in the body you’ll depend on for the rest of your life.

Had a chance to race Fast Fitty this last weekend with Summit Member, Bill Bird! Besides having lots of fun on two wheels it was exciting for me to see Bill in action. At 81 years old he is still very active doing the things he loves to do. Motivates me to keep active and to stay involved, proving that there is still a lot of vitality left in life for years to come! Summit is a proud sponsor of the Michigan Gravel Race Series which is a great resource for anyone that enjoys spending time on two wheels.
