UPPER BODY STRENGTH

Upper body strength is important to have because it controls your ability to perform everyday activities such as reaching, pulling, pushing and lifting. Having a strong upper body improves your flexibility, mobility and range of motion. If your upper body strength deteriorates as you age, you are more prone to injuries, diseases and a diminished quality of life. Your upper body is grouped into muscles with specific functions. You have muscles of your hand, forearms, upper arm and shoulder. You also have muscles that connect your limbs to your chest, torso and spinal column. Maintaining strength in these muscles enables you to perform everyday and sports related activities at an optimal level and to minimize the muscle loss that comes with aging. Upper body muscle strength can also help prevent injuries with activities that stress those muscles. Benefits of strength in these muscles are a pleasing, healthy appearance and strong posture.
