    The Benefits of Weight Resistance Exercise: Beyond Building Strength

    In this episode, we will break down how to fit exercise into your daily life, focusing on both activities that get your heart pumping and ones that build muscle.

    Regular exercise, both cardiovascular and weight resistance, provides significant health benefits, including reduced risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes and lower mortality rates Weight resistance training is as important as cardiovascular workouts, offering benefits like enhanced muscle mass, improved insulin sensitivity, and better bone health To establish a consistent exercise habit, find an activity you enjoy, start with smaller goals, and potentially get someone to hold you accountable Resistance training can start with lighter weights and higher repetitions, focusing on stability before increasing intensity

Love learning from Dr.Rob!

He is a wealth of knowledge and he shared it all with us! What a gift. Thank you Dr. Silverman for sharing with us. I love listening to this podcast.

✨ If you want a podcast that is more than just a random “health podcast” but one from a guy with more letters behind his name than I can count who cares to bring you facts and researched backed education that’s relevant and up-to-date… LISTEN 🎧🥰
