In my best Arnold Schwarzenegger voice, “I WANT TO PUMP YOU UP!”
Many of us think of bodybuilding or powerlifting when we hear about weight training. We think weight training is reserved for those in their “prime,” athletes, men, etc.. The gym can also be an intimidating place. We tend to gravitate towards the cardio equipment because it’s simple and feels like there are fewer eyes on us.
Let’s start by getting this out there: The gym is for everyone! Let’s shout it out from the rooftops! Whether experienced or brand new, man or woman, old or young, weight training can improve one’s quality of life. Sure, some people in the gym can be judgmental, but in truth the majority are incredibly welcoming and will root for you. As someone who goes to the gym nearly every day, when I see a new person in the gym, I quietly root for them and strive to make them feel at home!
So, what does the gym have to offer you?
Depending on your age, gender, and goals this will vary slightly but overall these weight training benefits will be enjoyed across all demographics and walks of life! I especially like number 10!
