Oh, I’ve only just come across your comment, thank you so much for leaving one! I hope my response didn’t come in too late.

Hmm, I believe all forms of physical exercise benefit the body. And just like good health relies on different factors, like genetics, diet, and lifestyle habits, resistance exercise is one of many contributors to overall well-being. What's more important is that it's an option for those whose preferences or circumstances allow it. For instance, not everyone enjoys or has the privilege of hiking, so they might consider resistance training instead.

Plus, physical activity is beneficial when practiced consistently, and enjoying the process helps maintain that consistency. So, knowing how resistance training can positively affect the brain makes it even more motivating to incorporate into the routine.
