I believe the answer is: Reduced risk of arthritis

Arthritis refers to an illness that is caused by the inflammation of joints in a certain area of the body. When we lift weight regularly, the average bone density that we have would also increase, this would strengthen the join and reduce the chance of the inflammation from occurring.
