Resistance Exercise Training in Individuals With and Without Cardiovascular Disease: 2023 Update: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association
Epidemiological evidence suggests that RT is associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality and CVD morbidity and mortality.2 Adults who participate in RT have ≈15% lower risk of all-cause mortality and 17% lower risk of CVD, compared with adults who report no RT. Approxi-mately 30 to 60 minutes per week of RT is associated with the maximum risk reduction for all-cause mortality and incident CVD.
Anyway, a great review of all the evidence for those like me who need that kind of encouragement to overcome the tedium & unpleasantness of actually doing strength training 🙂
