It's hard to explain, so I'll put it this way.
Assuming you know what a Bench Press is, when you push up there is positive resistance. Say the bar ways 45 lbs and you have 55 lbs of weight plates then there is 100 lbs of positive resistance. When you let the bar down after you have pushed it up there is 100 lbs of negative resistance, because it is coming towards you, you are not working to push it up but rather to take it down.
What else can I help you with?
Which of the following can refer to the form of exercise that uses free weights, weight machines, resistance bands, or the weight of the body to put stress on the muscles?
Strength training B. Weight training C. Resistance training D. All of the above.all of the aboveall of the above
Explain the relationship between weight training and progressive resistance?
Weight training versus resistance trainingResistance training involves the application of elastic or hydraulic resistance to muscle contraction rather than gravity. Weight training provides the majority of the resistance at the beginning, initiation joint angle of the movement, when the muscle must overcome the inertia of the weight's mass. After this point the overall resistance alters depending on the angle of the joint. In comparison, hydraulic resistance provides a fixed amount of resistance throughout the range of motion, depending on the speed of the movement. Elastic resistance provides the greatest resistance at the end of the motion, when the elastic element is stretched to the greatest extent.
What is strength training?
Resistance training, often known as strength training or weight training, involves applying resistance to muscular contraction to increase skeletal muscle size, anaerobic capacity, and strength.
What does the weight stack label indicate in terms of resistance for each handle?
The weight stack label indicates the amount of resistance that each handle will provide when pulled.
What information can I find in the resistance band weight chart?
The resistance band weight chart provides information on the resistance level of different bands, helping you choose the appropriate band for your strength training exercises.
Where can I find out about weight training for women?
Weight training is just as applicable to women as it is to men. The first place to look for more information on weight training for women would be your local physician, for medical clearance, and then an area gym that provides athletic training or personal training as these people are experts on strength and resistance training.
What is the similarities between aerobic exercise and resistance exercise?
Aerobic exercise is cardio exercise (where you get your heart rate up). Resistance exercise is weight training using resistance.
What is the difference between resistance training and strength training?
Strength training is the use of resistance to muscular contraction to build the strength, anaerobic endurance, and size of skeletal muscles. There are many different methods of strength training, the most common being the use of gravity or elastic/hydraulic forces to oppose muscle contraction. See the resistance training article for information about elastic/hydraulic training, but note that the terms "strength training" and "resistance training" are often used interchangeably.
Training that involves moving against a resisting force?
This type of training is known as resistance training. It involves using tools such as weights, resistance bands, or body weight to create resistance for the muscles to work against, helping to build strength, power, and muscle mass. Examples include weightlifting, bodyweight exercises like push-ups, or using resistance bands for strength training.
What is the importance of weight or resistance training?
Weight and resistance training allows a trainee to build larger, stronger muscles. These types of training simulate increased physical demands, causing the body to step up and meet those challenges. They are important for anyone who wants to be stronger, more muscular, or wants to live a healthy lifestyle.
What are the different kinds of weights used in strength training?
The different kinds of weights used in strength training include free weights (such as dumbbells and barbells), weight machines, resistance bands, and body weight exercises.
What type of exercise is specifically enhanced when couple with flexibility training or stretching?
Resistance training
