For a 40+ year-old woman or man, weight training after a period of inactivity can lead to significant improvements in muscle mass, strength, and bone density, potentially reducing the risk of falls and fractures, and improving overall health and quality of life.
Metabolic Changes:
Decreased muscle mass can lead to a slower metabolism, making it harder to maintain a healthy weight.
Enhanced Metabolism:
Increased muscle mass leads to a higher metabolism, meaning the body burns more calories at rest.
Improved Body Composition:
Weight training can lead to a shift in body composition (muscle vs fat), with an increase in lean muscle mass which leads to a decrease in fat mass.
NOTE: Muscle burns fat 24 hours a day! This has nothing to do with bodyweight.
