The Benefits of Strength Training

Strength training has a multitude of benefits, including the maintenance and building of lean muscle mass, improved resting metabolic rate, increased longevity, strength, and performance. It also helps fight against metabolic drift associated with dieting. While strength training may not directly lead to weight loss, it contributes to fat loss and body reconfiguration. Protein powder can be convenient for getting sufficient protein throughout the day. The popularity of protein supplements was born out of marketing, but it can provide benefits for muscle maintenance and growth. The optimal amount of protein needed varies based on individual goals and circumstances, with a range of 0.6 to 0.7 grams per pound of body weight or lean body weight being generally recommended. Protein needs may increase in a calorie deficit to preserve muscle tissue. The efficacy of vitamins and supplements depends on individual deficiencies. While multivitamins can be taken for basic nutrient needs, the impact may vary based on individual deficiencies and needs. Blood work can provide insights into specific nutrient deficiencies for a more personalized approach.
