Muscular Strength & Endurance
Muscular Strength and Endurance Training involves working individual, or groups of, muscles against a resistance to the point of fatigue.
Frequency? Minimum of 2 to 3 days per week for each major muscle group (arms, shoulders, chest, abdomen, back, hips and legs)
Intensity/Volume? To the point of volitional fatigue (FAILURE) within 8 - 12 consecutive repetitions of an exercise (one set)
Duration? 20-60 minutes
How? Any Activity that creates overload to the musculoskeletal system in the form of external, gravitational or isometric resistance.
For example:
Weight training
Calisthenics
Resistance tube exercises
Stabilization exercises
My favorites are: the push-up (the best way to get a GREAT upper body), walking lunges and squats (the best way to form those legs and booty) What are you favorite ways to strength train?

Hi Nice Blog . In this, the body is studied by regions rather than by organs. This is of importance to the surgeon who exposes different planes after the skin incision and who, of course, must be perfectly familiar with structures as he explores the limbs and spine anatomycavities.
