Strength Training (Care of the Young Athlete)
- Created in sports_and_fitness
Strength training (or resistance training) uses
a resistance to increase an individual's ability to exert force. It
involves the use of weight machines, free weights, bands or tubing, or the
individual's own body weight. This is not the same as Olympic lifting,
power lifting, or body building, which requires the use of ballistic movements
and maximum lifts and is not recommended for children.
