Thanks for that.

I disagree with the flexibility. I find the more muscle I put on the less flexible I am.

Other than #1 they are all debatable

#7 - you look good naked

 

[TommyTrainR]

I agree with #1.

The rest are questionable to say the least.

I don't disagree.

Basically this form of exercise is improving one's health. true.
Flexibility may not be improved in some, because not all of us stretch. For example, a male bodybuilder who's been lifting 10 years without stretching would have much less flexibility than any average guy walking the streets. I have to stretch my partners shoulders so he doesn't get "rounded shoulders" and end up with an impingement syndrome. & because he is so bulky, I have to lay him down, use my entire body to make sure I'm doing the stretching right..

The one I agree with the most is 4: weighted exercise DOES increase bone density which is important for older women.

& its good to look nice naked...lol

Body building has many benefits and all of them are not physical. However, there is always the drawback that once you are all pumped up you may be called on more often to lift furniture, or other heavy objects, hopefully by attractive members of your gender of choice. Body building makes you feel better about yourself in all areas of your life; you are stronger and more capable mentally and physically. You gain confidence, dedication and drive all by building muscle.
