It's not about weight, it's about fitness, and one component of being fit is to have relatively low body fat, because fat is not very efficient, whereas muscle is.

Quoting from ravenbeauty: "I thought about making a fitness movie, for folks my age, and call it "Pumping Rust." -unknown ============= For those of us that have seen Arnold at his best, that was a hilarious quote.

Exercise alone provides psychological and physical benefits. However, if you also adopt a strategy that engages your mind while you exercise, you can get a whole host of psychological benefits fairly quickly.
