Tá bom eu sei que o nome do tópico que ele deu é meio estranho, mais o que ele fala é um tapa na cara da nossa preguiça e desculpa., como a gente sempre encontra por aqui quando o assunto é exercícios e seus benefícios
If you’re trying to live a longer life, it’s becoming harder and harder to deny the one thing that will make the biggest difference in your life.
While cold tubs, fasting, and supplements get all the headlines, more strength is the real fountain of youth. ?
A recent study followed more than 400,000 adults for nearly 20 years. The researchers wanted to see what helped improve lifespan the most. So they controlled for all the normal things that might shorten your life, such as diabetes, heart disease, or cancer, and then examined behaviors assONciated with longer life.
The scientists found that just 1 hour of aerobic exercise per week can lower your mortality risk by 15 percent. If you bump that up to 3 hours, you’re looking at a 27 percent reduction. But the real boost occurs when you add strength training.
Those who added resistance training one or two times per week saw a 40 percent reduction in mortality risk. To put that into context, that’s the same health improvement you’d see between a non-smoker and someone who smokes
half a pack per day.
The craziest part? Only 24 percent of the 415,000 participants made strength training a part of their life.
As you know, it’s never too late to begin strength training and see the benefits. To help you train at least once per week, give this week’s workout a try.
