Resistance Training

Resistance training is a crucial aspect of any comprehensive fitness program, and at Row House, we aim to highlight its importance. Here's what you need to know about resistance training and why it's the key to achieving your fitness goals:

- What is Resistance Training?

Resistance training, also known as strength training or weight training, involves performing exercises that force your muscles to contract against an external resistance. This can be in the form of free weights, resistance bands, or even your own body weight. The primary goal is to build strength, endurance, and muscle mass while improving overall fitness.

- Benefits of Resistance Training

- Full-Body Strength: Resistance training targets multiple muscle groups, helping you achieve overall strength and muscular balance.

- Increased Metabolism: Building lean muscle through resistance training can increase your resting metabolic rate, helping you burn more calories throughout the day.

- Bone Health: Regular resistance training can increase bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.

- Functional Fitness: Strong muscles are essential for performing daily activities with ease and preventing injuries.

- Myths About Resistance Training

- Bulking Up: Many individuals, especially women, fear that resistance training will cause them to bulk up. However, when combined with a balanced diet, resistance training can help you achieve a toned, lean physique.

- Only for the Young: Resistance training is beneficial for individuals of all ages, including older adults. It can help maintain muscle mass and functional capacity as you age.
