“People aiming for ‘agelessness’ can really benefits from lifting weights, especially if it’s not something they’ve done before,” says Tyler Spraul, a certified strength and conditioning specialist and head trainer at Exercise.com.
“I’m not just talking about using the five- or 10-pound weights; heavier weights and full-body movements like squats and deadlifts actually happen quite a bit in everyday life—picking things up off the floor, getting out a chair or car—and training these exercises with weights can help increase your strength and mobility.”
He adds that a long-term health bonus is that performing these movements with heavier weights, while making sure to always use proper form, will lead to stronger and sturdier bones to fight degenerative diseases like osteoporosis.
