Of the Top 20 Worldwide Fitness Trends for 2010, “Strength Training” holds the second highest ranking spot, and has held a top 10 position in each of the past 4 years. It is an important part of an exercise program if you plan to maintain strength as you age, increase your resting metabolic rate (burn more calories while at rest) and enhance the body’s natural ability to burn stored fat. Strength training is a predominate theme at many health clubs these days right along with the cardio machines that offer an aerobic workout for maintaining overall health. National guidelines recommend that we get at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise five times a week or 20 minutes of intense physical activity three times a week to maintain fitness. Weight training or resistance training should be included at least twice a week to maintain and strengthen muscles.Research suggests that on average, the adults that do not incorporate strength training and exercise in their daily routine, will lose about 4 to 6 lbs of muscle tissue per decade as they get older. Why is that significant? Because your body works to maintain that muscle mass by using up about 5 calories of energy per day for each pound of muscle mass it carries (even if you are fairly sedentary)
