That was a long title, but essentially what I'm looking for is any articles you all have found helpful regarding the benefits of strength training in weight loss, lower blood pressure, etc. I am doing a project/paper in one of my classes about why I lift and why it's a huge misnomer in our society that only men should strength train. I know that you all agree with me on this, but can you find me some real academic research to back it up? Thank you!
