Why You Should Be Lifting Weights
I’m a pretty avid reader of Men’s Health and although I don’t agree with everything that’s written, they are a great source for a lot of health and fitness related studies and the statistics they produce.

I’ve recently been scouring through the 2010 edition of the Total-Body Health and Fitness Guide. In it I found three more reasons why you should be lifting weights at least 3 days a week:

  1. It cuts your risk of diabetes in just 4 months, according to a Tufts University Study. Weight training decreases blood glucose levels and improves insulin sensitivity.
  2. Harvard researchers say that when they compared the benefits of weight training and cardio exercise over a 10 week period found that those who lifted weights experienced a greater mood boost.
  3. It can save your brain from a stroke, according to a University of Michigan study. Lifting weights decreases blood pressure, reducing the risk of a stroke by 40%.
  4. BONUS reason: You’ll feel and look more confident and don’t forget sexier! ;)

If you feel as if you don’t have the time to lift weights three times a week, no sweat. All you really need is about creatine prices 15 minutes a day. To see how, give this a try for only $4.95 to start:

    Your WordPress blog keeps getting better and better! I’ve been following your posts for a couple of weeks now and I gotta say that your older posts don’t offer as much insight as the newer articles. Your writing is constantly improving! BTW, if you’re looking into placing some advertisements on your blog – you should really do it. Don’t go for all that 3rd party crap – Use a nice WordPress monetization tool coded by a buddy of mine which by far the best, it’s a must have plugin for any serious blogger. You can find it at Thaidy.com/Top10WordPressPlugins and give it a free test-run (To make it easier for you, I linked my name to the site). Oh, and there is a nice discount coupon in the sidebar of the mainpage for you.
    Keep up the good work mate!
