How can the simple act of lifting weights a few times provide many benefits?
Lifting weights causes tiny tears in your muscle fibers that expedite muscle-protein synthesis. This process uses amino acids to repair and reinforce the fibers, making them resistant to further damage. When you lift weights regularly, your muscles adapt and become bigger and stronger. Regularly lifting weights reduces fat, burns calories, increases bone density, and improves blood flow.
