Whats the difference between muscular strength and muscular endurance?
Muscular strength refers to how much resistance a muscle or muscle group can overcome (the amount of weight you can lift). Muscle endurance refers to the ability to repeatedly lift a certain weight or overcome a certain amount of resistance (the number of times you can lift something). Which is better, free weights or machines? Machines are safer when you’re exercising without supervision. Free weights can be adapted to your range of motion and body size, but you should never use heavy weights except in the presence of a trainer or “spotter.” Exercise Schedule Can I do muscle toning every day? Yes, if you work at low intensity. If you use weights, do upper body one day and lower the next. Or do resistance exercises that require pushing one day and pulling the next. Can I do aerobic/cardiovascular exercise every day? No. You’ll get burned out and bored. Three to five days a week is ideal. How often do I need to exercise to maintain? At least three days a week.
