@drjonschoeff: The American College of Sports Medicine just released its first major strength training update in 17 years. 137 studies. 30,000+ participants. The biggest takeaway? You don’t need the “perfect” program. Bands, cables, barbells, dumbbells, machines, or bodyweight, any form of resistance training can improve strength, muscle mass, and physical function when done consistently. And this matters because muscle is not just about physique. It helps regulate blood sugar, protect your joints, reduce inflammation, and preserve independence as you age. You don’t need 6 workouts a week. Start with 2 quality sessions. Use what you have. Stay consistent. #longevity #strengthtraining #muscle #musclegrowth #wellness
