Weight Training Links Email Mama Nutrition for Athletes Fitness Accessories What is Weight Training? Weight training is the action of routinely lifting weights to increase muscle size, strength and endurance. Most muscles can benefit from weight training. Weight training is done through a series of repetitions. A repetition refers to how many times an exercise is repeated during one set. For example, doing 3 sets of 10 repetitions on a bench press means doing 10 bench presses, resting, and then repeating two more times. As muscle strength and endurance increase, the weight used must be periodically increased if further gains are desired. Warm-up Sessions Before you start each weight training session, you should perform warm-up activities. A proper warm-up session includes stretching all the major muscle groups, 5 minutes of light aerobic activity (walking, cycling) followed by stretching of all the major muscle groups.

The first type of training is used by the group who just wants to firm up and lose body fat. This can be accomplished by adding some muscle and losing bodyfat in order to tighten up. A good long term goal to aim for is to lose enough body fat so that you can reach a 13-16% body fat range if you are a woman and between 8-10% if you are a guy. This sort of training can be referred to as body sculpting training. The second type of training is bodybuilding training. For bodybuilders, the main goal is to add pounds after pounds of muscle mass while taking their body fat levels to a neighborhood of 8-10% and in some instances, like a bodybuilding contest, even less, going as far as 3-4% body fat.
