A swedish study published in the BMJ concludes that low muscular strength is associated with a much higher risk of suicide and cardiovascular disease.

The health of 1 142 599 16-19 year old males was monitored for 24 years. Their strength was assessed using knee extension, handgrip, and elbow flexion tests.

The risk of CVD was reduced by 35% for the strongest people and up to 70% if they also had a low body fat ratio. 1 in 4 people in the UK and USA die prematurely due to CVD, which includes abnormal heart rhythms, heart attacks, and stroke.

The participants in the lowest tenth of muscular strength showed by far the highest risk of death due to different causes.

However, the most striking discovery is that stronger participants had a 20-30% lower risk of death from suicide and were less likely to have a psychiatric diagnosis, such as schizophrenia, mood or personality disorders, or suffer from alcohol abuse.

So start pushing those weights today to increase the chances that you enjoy a healthier, happier and longer life.
