In general, lifting light weights has a lower risk for injury than heavier lifting. According to a study published in 2010 in the “American Journal of Sports Medicine,” the most common cause of weight-lifting injuries in the emergency room is from exercisers dropping weights onto themselves. Less acute, but still painful or disabling, injuries occur from lifting too heavy or from incorrect form. The lighter the weight you’re lifting, the less likelihood of injury.
Lifting lighter weights often means you’re able to perform more repetitions for each exercise you complete. The American College of Sports Medicine notes that while completing eight to 12 repetitions – often performed using heavier weights — helps improve strength and power, doing 15 to 20 reps using lighter weights helps improve your muscular endurance — which can improve your overall endurance during weight-training or cardiovascular workouts.
Heavy weights promotes fat-free body mass with decreasing sarcopenia. The lean muscle mass that we all work so hard for decreases with age. If we don’t add strength training to our routine then it will turn into fat. It Increases the strength of connective tissue, muscles, and tendons.
