Discount Strength Training Equipment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
This brief article is about strength training using weight (gravity) to generate resistance to contraction.
A complete weight training workout can be performed with a pair of adjustable dumbbells and a set of weight disks (plates).
Weight training is a common type of strength training for developing the strength and size of skeletal muscles.
It uses the force of gravity (in the form of weighted bars, dumbbells or weight stacks) to oppose the force generated by muscle through concentric or eccentric contraction.
Weight training uses a variety of specialized equipment to target specific muscle groups and types of movement.
Weight training differs from bodybuilding, weightlifting, powerlifting and strongman, which are sports rather than forms of exercise. Weight training, however, is often part of the athlete's training regime.
