Michael Mosley is urging people to take on a simple three step exercise routine in a bid to live longer, slow ageing and lose weight.
The muscle-strengthening exercises could even help boost your metabolism and boost brain function, explains the inventor of the well-known 5:2 diet. The nutrition expert suggests that the way to enjoy all the benefits mentioned above is weight training.
Speaking on his BBC Sounds podcast Just One Thing, the presenter detailed recent evidence suggesting that doing muscle-strengthening just a few minutes per day can "confer some remarkable health benefits", including helping you live longer, reports WalesOnline.
