"PHYSICAL STRENGTH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE. THIS IS TRUE WHETHER WE WANT IT TO BE OR NOT." -Mark Rippetoe
This cannot be overemphasized.
Whether you run, ride a bike, work in your garden, work hard at your job, play varsity sports, play recreational sports, play with the kids, or make a sport out of your retirement, you get as much out of the preparation for these activities as you put into them.
Increased strength makes you faster, tougher, more powerful, more agile, more coordinated, more balanced, and more injury-proof. Increased strength improves your endurance, your body composition, your bone density, and your health – and it does so irrespective of your age.
If you're not stronger, it's time to get that way.
