Strength training is related to the muscle tone service, but goes one step further. A combination of resistance training methods are employed during this programme to build muscle mass. The type of equipment which can be used to do this includes free weights, resistance bands, and weight machines. Exercises which use the client’s own weight to train the muscles will also be employed.

The end result will be a defined physique and lower body fat percentage. The client’s overall health will also improve because increased muscle mass helps to maintain a healthy heart and improve bone density. By using a personal trainer, the client will benefit from a tailored strength building plan which is suited to their needs and moulds to their progress. It is also imperative to health and safety that a professional guide the operation of gym equipment, as misuse can cause serious and lasting injury.
