STRENGTH TRAINING AND CONDITIONING
Indoor, Outdoor & On-line
Strength Training, also known as resistance training, involves any activity that puts a weighted load on your muscles, which stimulates them to become stronger and bigger. It might involve just your body weight, a set of resistance bands, dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells or machines.
Benefits
- Builds muscle strength, which becomes more essential as we age as each decade after age 30 humans lose up to 5 pounds of muscle.Â
- You can slow down or even reverse the aging process by building muscle mass and strength.
- Increases bone density. Osteoporosis, a condition of accelerated bone mineral loss which leads to fractures, can be a crippling disease. Research on resistance exercises suggests that it can build bone even in the elderly.
- Greater strength can lead to fewer falls, which drastically decreases risk of injury.
