You don't need to go out and be a muscle head. But basic resistance training has some major advantages. First off, you don't have to leave your house, heck you don't have to leave your bedroom. A few dumbells are all you need to start, and to do most basic exercises. It doesn't take that long, and it doesn't take that much money. You have no good excuse for not having a few weights around the house to work with.
Doing weight lifting exercises will increase your metabolism and boost your immune system requiring less trips to the doctor and reducing your health care costs.
It will also make you more attractive to the opposite sex. Even for women! You don't need buff arms, but a little toning goes a long way to making you look more attractive.
