Why Muscular Fitness is Important?

Weight training to grow strong and lean

Fitness experts, doctors and researches all alike admit that muscular fitness is the most important factor to fitness. Well, as we have seen, muscles are adaptive, they change accordingly to what and how much they are asked to do. Throughout most of human history, labor was done primarly by the human body. People didn’t need exercise; they needed a rest! A hundred years ago the physical exertion of even a relatively sedentary individual would exhaust most people today.

So what happens to our “modern muscles”? we sit all around our desk, our hand-me-the-remote-control-so-that-I-don’t-have-to-get-up-and-change-channels universe rules our sedentary lifestyle. Simple – we don’t use our muscles they atrophy and shrink. We don’t use them, we lose them. This happens slowly in our twenties, more quickly in our thirties, and accelerates after. However, we can do something about it. And the specific program that best counteracts this deterioration of youthful muscle mass is weight training.

You don't need bulk, you need ripples

Don’t worry about “getting big”. Concern yourself instead with keeping what you already have. As Alice found in Alice in Wonderland, sometimes you have to run faster and faster to stay in the same place.

Having strong and fit muscles keeps you looking and feeling good. It increases your ability to play sports, even if you are only a weekend athlete.
