撇除史考特不熟悉的中藥不談,我不曾聽說過有任何一種藥物是「有病治病,沒病強身」的。癌症需要化療藥治療、感染需要抗生素、高血壓要降血壓藥,但這幾種藥物對沒病的健康人來說,絕對沒有強身的功效,只有副作用的風險。
絕大多數宣稱有健康功效的保健食品,也都沒有治療疾病的功效。
就我所知,重量訓練是唯一符合「有病治病,沒病強身」的好東西。如果有一天我能把重量訓練當成藥物開立,那麼它絕對是我最常處方的藥物。
預防兼治療
以下這張圖是2016年台灣十大死因,這些疾病不僅帶走人們的生命,更造成許多長期失能的問題。
我整理了目前有的科學研究,將其濃縮至精華,來說明重量訓練如何幫助人們預防及治療這些疾病。
治療
|
預防
| |
癌症
|
經治療後的癌症存活者接受重量訓練,肌力、肌肉量、行走距離、生活品質均上升,體脂肪及疲勞感下降(1)
|
健康且規律重量訓練者死於癌症的機率比一般人低31%(2)
|
心血管疾病
| ||
肺炎
|
無
|
肺炎往往與高齡、衰弱、免疫低下、失能臥床相關,重量訓練可能藉由減少上述危險因子,來降低肺炎發生
|
腦血管疾病
|
同上,腦血管疾病及心血管疾病的危險因子類似,都可以藉由重量訓練來降低風險
| |
事故傷害
|
股骨骨折術後復健加入阻力訓練,能使患者恢復行走能力(10)
| |
糖尿病
|
美國糖尿病醫學會建議,糖尿病患從事重量訓練可幫助血糖控制(14)
|
重量訓練增加肌肉吸收葡萄糖的能力、增加胰島素敏感度、降低糖尿病風險(15)
|
下呼吸道疾病
|
慢性阻塞性肺疾病患的復健計畫應包含重量訓練,可改善肌力、呼吸困難及肺功能(16)
|
無
|
高血壓
|
重量訓練有降高血壓的功效(17)
|
同左,重量訓練在正常血壓或高血壓前期者身上也有降血壓效果
|
腎病
|
腎臟病患做重量訓練的研究數量不多,初步證據顯示對肌力、肌肉量、生活品質都有幫助(18)
|
根據國內資料,糖尿病與高血壓是腎病的重要原因,因此重量訓練也對腎病的預防有幫助(19)
|
肝病
|
無
|
在台灣病毒性肝炎與酒精性肝炎是肝病的主要原因,重量訓練作為肝病預防的角色較小
|
(失智症並不在十大死因內,是因為失智很少直接造成病患死亡,反而是失能所造成的續發性問題如營養不良、吞嚥困難、褥瘡等。運動與重量訓練同時有治療及預防失智的功效,我過去在這個影片中有詳細討論。)
結語
十大死因中,僅有肺炎與肝病完全無法藉由重訓預防或治療,沒有任何一種已知的藥物或健康食品,有如此廣泛的適應症。如果各位自認為熱愛生命,都應該開始向最近的健身房報到。
