Resistance training involves pushing or pulling against the resistance of an object, such as weights, bands, or even one's own body weight. It increases muscle mass, strength, and power. Power, the ability to produce force over time, is developed on a foundation of strength but involves a time component. For example, training explosively or quickly moving weights generates maximal power.
Dr. Schoenfeld suggests that people, particularly older adults, perform some resistance training explosively. His research demonstrated that older adults had better functional improvements when they included power training in their routines. In this clip, Dr. Brad Schoenfeld discusses why it is important to incorporate some form of power training in resistance exercise programs.
