More studies prove that lifting heavy weights are a greater benefit to your health than light weights.

"Subjects lifting more weight fewer times burned more energy and had a greater metabolic boost after exercise."

"those who were assigned to do resistance exercises three times a week — sets of 8 reps at 70 to 80 percent of their ability — lost the most weight and body fat."
