Episode 044 - Why should I lift weights?

"People do not decide their future. They decide their habits and their habits decide their future"

Weight training - no form of exercise has more myths and stereotypes surrounding it.

"I want to lose weight so I won't lift weights because I'll get big and bulky"

"Weight training is for bodybuilders only"

"I don't need to do weights, I'm not vain"

In this episode of the show we answer a question we get asked an awful lot - "Why the hell should I lift weights?"

If you're wondering how they help you and even where to start with your own weight training program, this episode has you covered!
