Strength training is more than just “training to look good”. When I first started digging into the research, to my surprise there are four main areas that resistance training (RT) can optimise the brain and they are; ✅ Optimization of neuroendocrine and physiological responses ✅ Act as a buffer against stress and stress-related diseases/chronic diseases ✅ Promotion of an anti-inflammatory state ✅ Enhancement of neuroplasticity and growth factor expression What did you focus on today at the gym? Legs? Back? Are you a HIIT person? Let me know 👇🏼 #brainhealth #resistancetraining #hormones #fitness
