Why bodybuilding? Put simply, lifting weights - or resistance training - is one of the best ways to achieve total body health and fitness. Research has shown time and again that pumping iron provides a host of benefits: Bigger muscles, of course, but also greater strength, higher bone density, and improved cardiovascular capacity. Adding muscle also naturally ignites your body's internal fat-burners, increasing your metabolism while lowering your blood pressure and cholesterol. Oh yeah, and you'll look terrific.

Body building is probably the healthiest activity that any individual can perform.
The scientifi c literature documents that resistance exercise not only serves to induce positive physiological
changes but also can help to enhance and maintain our functional ability in later life.
While this is all to the good, it remains true that the fi rst reason most people have for working out is to improve their appearance,
and in this respect, bodybuilding is without peer in the fi tness world.
Running, for example, being an activity that is restricted predominantly to the lower
body, cannot signifi cantly improve your upper-body strength, nor can it enhance
your fl exibility. Stretching or yoga can enhance your fl exibility, within certain
genetically determined limits, but neither can improve your cardiovascular effi ciency
to any meaningful degree.
