I have a feeling you're probably right about stress and HT.

I strongly believe everyone needs to lift weights. For me it helps with stress. It's a great way to funnel all the days work BS out of your body.

I feel super energized and at the top of the world, even after a quick 20 minute session.

As people get older and they lose muscle/bone density they have a habit of falling down and breaking things, so it's never to late to start. That's my main long term concern.

Exercising helps, no doubt. I see it as good stress, controlled stress that trains your body to deal with bad stress. There are other ways too. I get the same level of excitement when I take cold showers.

My back prevents me from lifting weights again. But I'm happy for those who can and do it.
