Define muscular strength and muscular endurance and describe the benefits of each. Discuss the basic structure and function of skeletal muscle. Outline the fitness and wellness improvements that occur with regular resistance training. Describe common resistance-training methods and programs and create an exercise plan compatible with your goals and lifestyle. Identify and observe precautions for safe resistance training. Describe the risks associated with supplement use, including anabolic steroids. Energy comes from glycogen and phosphocreatine reserves within the muscles, and glucose in the blood. Isotonic a muscle contraction with relatively constant tension: concentric a muscle contraction with overall muscle shortening, eccentric a muscle contraction with overall muscle lengthening. Isometric a muscle contraction with no change in muscle length. Isokinetic a muscle contraction with a constant speed of contraction. Improves body composition, weight management, and body image: strengthens bones and protects against injury, helps maintain functioning with aging, reduces cardiovascular disease risk, enhances sport performance.
