There is no better way to transform your body than through regimented weight training. While cardiovascular exercise can help to shed excess fat from your body, it really has almost no effect on muscle tone. Conversely, weight training helps to shape your muscles, promoting a lean, sculpted physique that exudes sex appeal. Whether you're young or old, thin or overweight, several months of pumping iron will make your body more aesthetically pleasing. Invariably, your self-esteem will improve, fostering a renewed confidence in your abilities.
Strength training can be very therapeutic.
It provides an outlet for your aggressions, allowing you to channel stress and relieve anxiety. Until recently, it was thought that endorphins were only associated with cardiovascular exercise. However, newly released studies have shown that, after a strength training session, endorphin levels are increased by more than 60 percent. Hence, an intense weight training session will leave you feeling rejuvenated and even euphoric, keeping your mind trouble-free. Golf, tennis, skiing and other activities are becoming increasing popular with the older sect.
