Resistance Training Guidelines

Resistance training involves exercises that improve strength by working your muscles against a force, like weights or resistance bands. To do it effectively and safely, aim for 2-3 sessions per week, targeting major muscle groups. Each session should include 8-12 repetitions for each exercise, using a weight that challenges you but allows proper form. Rest between sets is typically 30-90 seconds. Gradually increase the weight or repetitions over time to build strength. Consistency, proper technique, and balanced training are key for improving muscle health and overall fitness.
