Cognitive performance and ability to retain information.
Reduces the rate of decline for people who have cognitive diseases and improves quality of life because reduces reliance on care.
Regular exercise significantly improves depression and anxiety.
Cardio Respiratory:
Most people reach required cardio respiratory fitness threshold to avoid premature death or development of disease processes (8 metabolic equivalents / MET) from just resistance training.
Blood pressure is increased and left ventricular hypertrophy results from strength training but as it is an adaptive response it is a different type of hypertrophy and there is an increased amount of elasticity in the arterial system.
Resting blood pressure is lowered and aerobic exercise is only superior if combined with the usually associated weight loss.
Músculo Skeletal System:
Increased lean body mass improves quality of life and avoids slow painful death associated with sarcopenia.
Decreased waist circumference (even more than cardio) significantly lowers risk of disease development.
