Muscle Strength

Muscle strength refers to the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to exert force against resistance. This can be measured through activities such as lifting weights or performing bodyweight exercises. Factors influencing muscle strength include the size of the muscle fibers, the efficiency of the nervous system in activating those fibers, and overall fitness levels. Regular strength training can enhance muscle strength, improve physical performance, and contribute to better overall health, including increased bone density and improved metabolic function. Essentially, stronger muscles help with daily activities and reduce the risk of injury.
