Summary
A large long-term study suggests that strength training can significantly reduce women’s risk of heart disease, especially when combined with regular aerobic exercise. Researchers followed more than 115,000 women for up to 30 years and found that performing at least two hours of resistance training weekly lowered the risk of major cardiovascular disease by 20% and cut heart attack risk by 44%. Every additional hour of strength training further reduced heart attack risk. Experts say resistance exercises build muscle, improve metabolism, reduce inflammation, and support heart health. They recommend pairing weight training with 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity each week for maximum cardiovascular benefits.
