How Strength Training Works
Strength Training involves a structured program of resistance-based exercises designed to challenge specific muscle groups. These exercises can include bodyweight movements, resistance bands, dumbbells, kettlebells, and machines. Key elements include:
- Progressive Overload: Gradual increase in resistance to build strength over time.
- Functional Movement Patterns: Exercises mimic real-life activities to improve daily function and athletic performance.
- Form and Control: Emphasis on proper technique to maximize results and minimize injury risk.
