For both competitive and recreational athletes, the right resistance training program can play an integral role in helping you achieve new levels of performance, improve your musculoskeletal strength, and decrease your likelihood of injury.

How a Resistance Training Program Can Help Decrease Your Risk of Injury

Whether it be lessening your chances of twisting an ankle or suffering from an overuse injury, resistance training can improve your body’s ability to respond to both acute and chronic stressors placed on your body. These stressors can come in the form of everything from an athletic competition at the highest level to simply staying active well into the later years of your life.

Decades upon decades of research has shown that resistance training can decrease one’s risk of injury by:

  • Increasing muscular strength
  • Promoting the growth of connective tissues within the muscle
  • Increasing hypertrophy
  • Strengthening ligaments and tendons
  • Improving bone health
  • Strengthening joint cartilage

Resistance training can positively affect all aspects of our skeletomuscular systems down to the very cellular level.

 

How to Incorporate Resistance Training Effortlessly into Your Weekly Schedule

With resistance training playing such a crucial aspect in increasing our health and well-being, it is important to set aside some time every week to focus on strength training. You are only as strong as your weakest link, and addressing muscular imbalances is best done by utilizing exercises that target full ranges of motion, rather than unnaturally isolating specific sub-groups of muscles. Plus, by incorporating full body workouts, the time you spend strength training can be substantially minimized.
