Resistance Training

Resistance training (also known as strength training or weight lifting) is a form of exercise that uses resistance, such as weights, bands, or body weight, to increase muscular strength and endurance. It is important for improving bone density, strengthening muscles and tendons, helping with weight management, and reducing the risk of injury. Resistance training can be performed using weight machines, free weights, or the body's own resistance; it can also be done in groups or individually. Resistance training can significantly improve flexibility, balance, and mobility, and is an important component of a healthy lifestyle.
