4 Reasons to Build Muscle

Why are people interested in building muscle?

Besides the aesthetic reasons, there are some really great benefits to building muscle.

Here are four of our favorite reasons why you should wand to build more muscle:

1. Muscle increases your metabolic rate

Simply put, more muscle = higher metabolism

And who doesn’t want a higher metabolism?

Muscle uses energy, while fat stores energy. This means that the more muscle you have, the more fat you burn.

It means you get to eat more tacos!

2. Muscle mass helps prevent injuries

Muscle mass fortifies your bones, along with your tendons and ligaments.

Core strength helps improve balance and stability.

All of these in combination will make you less likely to experience a fall or an injury.

3. Strength makes life easier

The stronger you are, the easier everyday activities will be.

You can pick up a bag of dog food, climb the stairs, carry your children, bring in all the groceries at once, etc.

Any of us out there who have struggled to lift something we needed know, it’s a helpless feeling. Gain the strength to not need help.

The downside?

People will probably ask you to help them move.

4. Muscle improves your overall health

Strength training has been shown to help with mental acuity, cardiovascular health, and so much more.

Pair strength training with endurance training and a great nutrition program, and you can add years to your life and life to your years.
