Planned exercise using resistance to improve the ability to produce force.
Why Strength training matters
Strength training supports muscle, bone, physical function and performance when progressed appropriately.
A practical example
Using machines, free weights or bodyweight exercises two or three times per week.
Common mistake
Believing strength work must always involve maximal loads or competitive lifting.
Keep the context in mind.
Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.
Personalised coaching
Apply the principle to your own training.
A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
