Lifting now can slow middle-age spread reports a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Women who strength trained twice a week for 2 years decreased their body fat by 3.7 percent. Plus, the lifters gained a third as much intra-abdominal fat, the stuff that surrounds organs and is linked to heart disease, as nonlifters.
Strength training builds muscle that burns calories from fat stores all day long, says study author Peter Hannan.
