strength training guidelines

Strength training involves exercises that improve muscle strength and endurance. To do it safely, aim for 2-3 sessions per week, targeting major muscle groups like legs, back, chest, and arms. Use a weight or resistance level that challenges you but allows completing 8-12 repetitions with proper form. Rest for 48 hours between sessions to allow muscles to recover. Gradually increase weight or repetitions over time to build strength. Incorporate a variety of exercises to avoid plateaus. Always warm up before and cool down after workouts, and consult with a professional if you're new or have health concerns.
