Looks like this study highlights the importance Resistance / strength based training in the fight against premature death.

Strength / resistance training – But a recent study now shows that 30-90 minutes of resistance training a week is enough to potentially decrease risk of premature death from all causes by 10%-20% & myokines are hormones that our muscles release in response to all sorts of stimuli – including exercise. Circulating around the body, myokines are able to regulate metabolism, as well as liver, brain and kidney function. One specific myokine I’ve spent a career studying is myostatin. While we know that it regulates muscle size, there’s all sorts of new evidence that it also influences metabolism and fat cell growth – which all play a role in helping us keep healthy and live longer.

What kind of training do you prefer in for your longevity health??

Mine is strength / resistance & functional training, 4-5 times a week for around about 90 mins with 30 -90 seconds rest between sets as well as adding supersets with bodyweight exercises and I try to add hard aerobic exercises in there as well either at beginning or end to wrap up the sess i.e. assault bike, stair climber and rower, all low impact training but effective.
