Strength and Longevity: How Lifting Extends Your Life and Healthspan

You may have started lifting to build muscle or change your physique, but the benefits of resistance training extend far beyond how you look.In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we explain how lifting can support metabolic health, bone density, cognitive function, mental health and physical independence as you age. We also discuss how much strength training may be needed to gain meaningful health benefits and why building muscle earlier can provide a greater reserve for later in life.As always, we wrap up with what we learned this week.
