WEIGHT LIFTING LEADS TO GOOD BLOOD-DRAWING VEINS

So said the lady drawing my blood for my physical this morning. Well, that’s good to know… I have noticed that the veins in my arms pop out a bit. Huh.

LIFT TO LIVE LONGER

A decent article considering it is from Yahoo… I do find it weird that it starts out talking about lifting to live longer and then turns into an article about how we sit too much, but it had good intentions. The references come from Lou Schuler and Alwyn Cosgrove, who are the people that wrote “The New Rule of Lifting” and “The New Rules of Lifting for Women”.

Notice that he talks about ladies lifting heavy? YUP.
