Yes. Straining while lifting weights is dangerous for anyone, male or female, regardless of age. If you're straining or having trouble keeping the weights under control, you're lifting too much weight.

Do you get fat if you quit lifting weights?

This answer depends on your diet. If you continue to consume the same amount of calories after you quit lifting, then yes you may get fat. Lifting weights burns calories and muscles need these calories to build more muscle. If you quit lifting weights, your body no longer needs as many calories. Also, your metabolism will slow after you quit lifting weights. Now, if you quit lifting weights and also cut calories, you will not get fat.


Is healthy to lift weights at home or is it dangerous?

In general, lifting weights is a safe activity. Unlike, say, contact sports like hockey or football or dangerous sports like horseback riding, if you warm up properly and use proper exercise technique the only injuries you may suffer are minor.Nevertheless, it is possible to hurt yourself training alone (in other words, without a spotter) at home. In fact, if you blackout during a bench press you could even kill yourself. That happens on average several times a year in North America and Europe. Still, if you breathe properly and you are using a properly set power rack, that kind of injury cannot happen. Therefore, it is healthy and not dangerous to lift weights at home IF you are lifting properly.
