Resistance Exercise, a fundamental component of fitness training, focuses on building strength, muscle endurance, and overall physical resilience by engaging in activities that challenge the muscles against external resistance. This form of exercise employs various tools and techniques, including free weights, resistance machines, resistance bands, and bodyweight exercises. The primary objective is to elicit positive adaptations within the musculoskeletal system, promoting muscle hypertrophy, improved joint stability, and enhanced functional capacity. One key advantage of resistance exercise is its adaptability to individual fitness levels and goals. Whether a novice or an experienced athlete, individuals can customize their resistance training programs to suit their specific needs. Progressive overload, a fundamental principle in resistance exercise, involves gradually increasing the intensity or resistance over time to ensure continued growth and adaptation. This approach contributes to the development of lean muscle mass, increased metabolism, and improvements in body composition.
