Building strength and muscle increases your resting metabolic rate, meaning you burn calories during your workout. You also burn more calories at rest as you build muscle.
Whether you are looking to improve your physique, increase your athleticism, or increase mobility and functional movement, strength and weight training can help you meet your goals.
At the Y, you can participate in weights and strength training independently, in a group exercise setting, or online.
