What is Strength Training?

Looking at the heading, that should be 'DUH.......!!!! Training for strength...'

Exactly!

That includes, getting your muscles, mind and body energy systems to have more than enough to handle the pressure of their role. Also there are different types of strength that have to be trained. And for each person depending on their work and lifestyle each strength pattern required is different. Strength is a very broad topic but the end result is the same...............to get stronger and perform better in WHATEVER you have to do.

So why are most people not doing it?

1) Some people think its not important.
2) Some think its only for those who go to a gym.
3) Some think that its not for them because they havn't collapsed (yet!!) in a heap and so they are strong.
4) Some just don't know better.

The list goes on and on.

The truth is strength training is vital for everyone according to their occupation and everyday needs. There are different sorts of strength that can be trained for. The one is which is most appropriate to you. Usually over here is where a personal trainer of a fitness consultant can come in and help. Strength training for an athlete is very different to that of a Corporate employee or a home maker. However strength training is necessary for all of them. Let me explain.

A corporate employee has a day of mostly being in front of a computer, meetings to attend, handle appointments, deal with stress of clients and maybe a boss breathing their neck. The strength training they need to handle that is different as compared to a homemaker who runs around with the kids, sees to home chores and yet has enough strength to handle that. They both need strength. The training however will be different.

Are you feeling low on energy? Weak and drained out at the end of the day? Go on.....get up....... find a good and knowledgeable personal trainer or fitness consultant, get on a program and start training. Time for you to get stronger.....
