Greatness of Weightlifting

Greatness of Weightlifting

            Of course I feel that weightlifting is an amazing thing that everyone should do, but the sad truth is that most people have never done it, don’t do it anymore, or very rarely do it.  For many reasons, I feel that this is a bad decision for people to make.  In this post I will be talking about all the benefits of weightlifting that everyone could gain personally from.

            Obviously, America is the fattest country on earth, and I feel that is every American spent at least a half an hour to an hour exercising, we could go from being one of the fattest countries, to one of the healthiest.  Exercise, strengthens the muscles and burns fat, but also can cleanse pours from sweat, give more positive attitudes, teaches discipline and control, relieves stress, and even has a chance to increase intellect.  All of this just from working out. 

            The obvious symptom from working out, increasing strength, can help you in life more than most people might believe.  Watching yourself get stronger increased your confidence in everything you do in life, it makes you feel better going through your day, and as a man makes the females notice you more.  Every aspect of your life changes when you begin to workout.

            One of the biggest things that tick me off is when people that really are in dire need of exercise and who constantly have nothing going on, but still don’t weight lift.  I know a guy that can seriously without exaggeration, not be able to bench press the bar at the gym, which is only forty five pounds.  He has absolutely no life and is never busy, but he is underweight for his height and age and wants to become a professional basketball player.  He started to weight lift for about a month or so and then decided to quit because he thought it was too hard.  He desperately needs exercise and weightlifting instead of all the lazy crap he does now. 

            Then there are the total opposite, people who are way too heavy and real busy in life with jobs, kids, relationships, all that stuff to be able to weight lift, even if they need to exercise or else it could cause health problems.  You don’t need a lot of time to work out about all the time you need is a half an hour, if you are going extremely hard and intense, than a half an hour a day five to six days a week is all you need.

            So exercise should be a part of everyone’s lives, whether you like it or not.  So many benefits from working out that you probably didn’t even know about that will make you happier in life.  Remember, we’re all in this together, keep your stick on the ice.
