- Strength training can prevent or delay poor health outcomes.
New research suggests that dedicating 90 minutes to two hours per week to weight training can significantly reduce the risk of premature death. Decades of data indicate that regular engagement in resistance exercises over extended periods substantially lowers the chance of mortality from heart disease and stroke.
These health advantages also extend to a reduced risk of death from neurological conditions. Experts emphasize that this findings provide further compelling evidence for the role of strength-based training in preventing or delaying the onset of various health issues.
