The Importance of Strength Training!

Regardless of our chosen method of exercise (e.g. running, golfing, biking, tennis, walking, etc.) appropriate resistance training should be our top priority! 

Structured strength training benefits our performances within these physical activites with improved motor control, improved fatigue resistance of the muscle fibers involved, more efficient, stronger contractions and lowered risk of injury.  

Without appropriate resistance training, muscle imbalances will eventually manifest themselves due to the repetitive nature of the movements, leading to injuries and even cessation of the physical activity due to incapacitation. Moreover, the aging process will eventually lead to muscle imbalances and general overall weakness as well without dedicated resistance training.
