Should you start lifting weights?—经济学人

副标题:You’ll stay healthier for longer if you’re strong本篇主要说有氧运动让你好好活着,力量训练让你活的更有质量(默默打开手机搜索深蹲架,好大又好贵,感觉是按照男性设计的,我的小哑铃可以试试用起来了)

有氧运动的好处:There is no doubt cardio is good for you—it lowers blood pressure, cuts the risk of heart disease, strokes and some kinds of cancer, and may even help treat depression. Fit people live up to seven years longer than couch potatoes.

力量训练的好处:Though the evidence is less robust here than for cardio, a review published in 2022 concluded that regular strength training seems to reduce the risk of heart diseases, diabetes and cancer.

力量训练可以预防或治疗肌肉减少症:The body’s muscles naturally begin to shrink in one’s 30s and that loss is disproportionately from the powerful, fast-acting “type 2” fibres which are responsible for explosive strength.缺少的话容易摔倒 Lack of muscle increases the risk of falls, a big killer of the elderly.

服用的减重药物部分导致肌肉流失:It could even be aggravated by the popularity of GLP-1 drugs like Wegovy. Some of the weight lost by people taking these drugs seems to result from shedding muscle rather than fat, which is not so healthy

举重有用,深蹲架在召唤你:But the evidence suggests that, even for people in their 80s, a bit of pumping iron can work wonders. The squat rack beckons.
