The Strength Training Principle
The principle of strength training and how strength training works can be best described through the story of Milo from Crotona. Milo was an ancient Olympian who won 6 Olympic titles as a wrestler.
Ever since he was a boy he wanted to be the world’s strongest man, so he decided to lift a small calf every day. Over weeks, month and years, this calf grew into a full bull and since Milo continued his daily ‘strength training routine’ of lifting the calf, he was able to lift a full bull by the time the bull was grown up.
Strength Training Explained
This is one of the best descriptions what strength training is and how strength training works.
Small incremental progressions in load lifted over time done regularly and consistently leads to big results.
Strength Training Equipment
Strength training is not limited to free weights or strength training machines, strength can be trained with different training modes, including free weights, machines, the own body weight and many more options.
Important is to understand, when to use what and why?
As an applied example, very often when people start out engaging in strength training, they are not able to dominate their own body weight, so they can’t do a full Push Up or Pull Up, in these instances, even the own boy weight is too heavy for an effective strength training and you need to find alternatives to get the right start into their strength training workouts.
Strength Training Programs for Beginners
Possible options for the Push Up could be a Push Up where the arms are elevated on a bench, eccentric only Push Ups or Push Ups on the knees.
Example for a Pull Up could be Assisted Pull Ups, where the movement is assisted through resistance bands or an eccentric only Pull Up.
