BUILDING MUSCLE
•Resistance training is the only type of exercise capable of slowing and maybe reversing loss of muscle mass, bone density, and strength
•The “Use it or lose it” axiom applies to the 600-plus muscles in the body
•Declining stimulation of the muscles results in progressive shrinking and weakening of the muscles (atrophy)

BENEFITS OF RESISTANCE TRAINING•Strength training increases muscle mass and decreases fat
•Increased muscle mass means your body burns more calories – even at rest
•The functions of daily life can be performed with less effort
•Joint mobility improved
•Arthritic symptoms reduced or eliminated
•Stronger legs improve balance and reduce the risk of falling

BENEFITS OF RESISTANCE TRAINING (2)
•Risk of osteoporosis is reduced
•People can live independently and with dignity longer
•Most disability associated with aging is due to disuse
•Reaction time/skills improved
•Healthier sleep patterns
•Improves self-esteem, self-confidence, and body image
•Positive impact on cardiorespiratory endurance, hypertension, blood fat levels and improves insulin control

PRINCIPLES OF RESISTANCE TRAINING
• Intensity
• Duration
• Frequency
• Overload
• Progression
• Specificity
• Variety

TYPES OF CONTRACTIONS
•Isometric- muscle doesn't change length
•Isotonic- muscle shortens and lengthens against external force
•Concentric- shortens
•Eccentric - lengthens
•Isokinetic - contraction against same resistance thru ROM

RESISTANCE TRAINING
•Most resistance training is isotonic or isometric
•Isokinetic is typical with rehab protocols

Muscular Strength -the maximum force a muscle or muscle group can exert
Muscular endurance -the repeated application of muscular force against a submaximal resistance (HYPERTROPHY)
Muscular power-the max amount you can lift in the shortest amout of time

ERGOGENIC AIDS• Ergogenic aids are substances, techniques, and treatments that theoretically improve physical performance in
addition to the effects of normal training
• Some of the more well-known aids include:
• Protein supplements
• Creatine
• Ginseng
• Chromium Picolinate
• Ubiquinone (Co-Q10)
• Conjugated Lineoeic Acid (CLA)
• Androstenedione (Andro)
• Human Growth Hormone (hGH)
• Anabolic-androgenic steroids
