Strength training, also known as weight or resistance training, isn’t just for body builders! In fact, everyone can benefit from strength training as it helps prevent the natural loss of lean muscle mass that comes with ageing, and it is suitable for all ages and fitness levels!
The Australian Physical Activity and Fitness Guidelines list strength training as an essential part of maintaining good physical & mental health and wellbeing, with a recommended 2 sessions per week. This doesn’t always need to involve lifting weights in the gym, although helpful, it can consist of bodyweight or resistance exercises that can just as easily be completed at home.
