Skeletal muscles are essential for physical performance and an important contributing factor in maintaining optimal health throughout life. The body consists of more than 500 skeletal muscles, which are involved in powerful movements and small and fine motions.
Muscles are crucial in maintaining glucose homeostasis and providing a site for fatty acid metabolism and glycogen synthesis. We use our muscles to offset obesity through exercise and to improve cardiovascular function. Muscles interact with other organs via the excretion of myokines, which support the metabolic functions of different tissues, such as bones, pancreas, liver and adipose tissue.
The value of strength training and our health is unarguable. Maybe we should reconsider how we approach our home gyms. Home gyms are usually in basements or garages and sometimes dedicated rooms in our residential spaces. Yet, most yards consist of swing sets, picnic tables, lounge chairs, play forts, gardens and the like.
