"but weight training might not actually be a good fit to most people. I"

People will eventually realize it causes cancer. Weight training literally generates inflammation.

Inflation? I don't think this comment could have better intentionally illustrated how ill-informed it is if you tried.

[ransom1538]

Lol. Sorry typo. Fixed.

[guilhermeasper]

Can you provide studies/sources for your claims?

[shaewest]

The studies I've seen point to a reduce risk & mortality of diseases inclusive of cancer, not sure what you've been reading from.

I've read before that tall people get more cancer than short people, if it's relative to how many cells you have then an extra 30 kilograms of muscle might make a difference too!

[loeg]

Virtually no one puts on 30 kg of muscle by weight training without steroids. Certainly not by accident. Those are like college-NFL football numbers.

[daseiner1]

just raise interest rates to counteract, then

perhaps you meant inflammation

resistance training doesn't cause cancer though

[delis-thumbs-7e]

I suppose that if your muscles grow rapidly, you could call that inflation of some kind? Connection to cancer still unclear though.
