Misconceptions About Strength Training

Slide 6: 

One classic myth is that one can become muscle-bound or slower as a result of resistance training. Marketing strategies that promote myths of achieving fitness in six weeks.

Common Injuries

Slide 9: 

In 1979 the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (USCPSC) reported that more than half of the 35,512 weightlifting injuries requiring emergency room treatment involved 10-to 19-year-olds.

Proper teaching progressions, supervision of progress, and positive motivation of the child are important aspects of an exercise-training program.

Increased strength of specific muscle groups Increased power of specific muscle groups Increased local muscular endurance of specific muscle groups Increased motor performance (ability to jump, run, or throw) Increased total-body mass (age dependent)

Slide 20: 

Increased muscle hypertrophy (age dependent) Decreased body fat Increased self-confidence Improved sport performance
