Strength training helps us live longer. Scientists looked at exercise data on 150,000 adults. The adults who often did strength training had a lower risk of dying younger. The training protected the adults from heart disease. People who did up to two hours of training a week had a 19 per cent lower risk of dying from heart disease.
Muscles are important. They help us live longer. Stronger muscles give many benefits. If our muscles are not active, they do not burn up so much fat and sugar. Instead, these become body fat.
