Training Tip #5 for the Run for Mercy 5K & Family Walk
by Dr. Josh Axe
Wellness Physician & Radio Show Host

5. Implement strength training!

Lift weights 2 - 3 times a week. This will help strengthen your muscles and also prevent injuries. Strength training will improve your glucose tolerance and increase insulin receptor sensitivity. This will help your body become a fat burner, rather than a sugar burner. This type of exercise also creates a bigger metabolic after burn than aerobic training, while also increasing fat free muscle, bone density and metabolism.
