Resistance training is a type of exercise that increases the strength of your muscles. Resistance training is done by:
• Lifting weights (also called dumbbells),
• Using your body weight for resistance, or
• Using exercise bands
Research says that doing resistance training 2 to 3 times each week can make your muscles stronger and able to work for a longer time (increase muscle endurance). Doing resistance training can also:
• Help manage your blood sugar
• Help you live on your own for longer
• Make everyday activities feel easier
• Help make your bones stronger
• Help make your joints stronger
• Improve your balance and reduce falls
• Improve your mood
• Improve your sleep
• Lower your body fat
• Raise your self-confidence, self-image and quality of life
Resistance training uses the terms ‘repetition’ and ‘set’.
• A repetition is one complete motion of an exercise
• A set is a group of repetitions done without stopping
Repeat the curl up until you have finished 10 to 15 repetitions. Start by doing only 1 set.
