I WANT MUSCLES!

Muscle strength is the maximal force that can be generated by a specific muscle or muscle group. Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle groupe to execute repeated contractions over a period of time sufficient to cause muscular fatigue. Muscular Fitness combines two componets of Health: strength and endurance are a part of physical fitness. If you're not strong you are more likely to injure yourself and get fatigued very quickly. To build muscle strength you must tax your muscles more than their used to or do what we call weight training. Training your muscles to lift more weight helps you in a variety of ways; more muscle burns more calories so it raises your metabolic rate, it also builds strength so you will have less injuries and endurance will build up the muscles so that you will have more oxygen and the muscle can do more work for longer period of time. Weight training or any strength based activitiy, Yoga, Pilates, Body Sculpting can and will increase your strength and benefit your body through muscle activation. Make sure you are adding this special component to your weekly fitness regime and remember for weight loss you really want to add strength training to your workout; the more muscle the more calories burned!
