I always emphasize that resistance training (weight lifting) is one of the most important components of an exercise program, as it helps in the maintenance of a healthy body composition.
An ideal body composition is one that encompasses a high percentage of lean mass (muscle and bone) and a low percentage of fat mass relative to overall body weight.
Unfortunately, many people tend to avoid weight lifting for a fear of "bulking up" or "getting bigger". If this is a concern, follow these simple tips to avoid such effects: http://www.ninacheriephd.com/you-your-body-and-your-health/how-to-lift-weights-without-bulking-up.
