Answer: preventing cancer.

Explanation: Resistance training can not prevent cancer in general. While resistance training helps lesser symptoms after diagnosis, it cannot fully prevent it.

But resistance training can prevent osteoporosis by strengthening bone density and decreasing bones, resistance training can also improve quality life by decreasing symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression with consistent physical exercise. Resistance traing contributes to reduced obesity due to work of training done in muscles - causing the body to skyrocket in calorie burn.
