Yes I know, lifting weights can be sometimes boring and repetitive. However, there's so many ways to exersice. Before I inform you the benefits, I'll mention the science behind strength training. Strength training is a combination morphological and neural factors such as muscle hypertrophy, motor unit recruitment, and neuromuscular inhibition. Muscle hypertrophy refers to the growth and increased sized of muscle cells. Changes to the skeletal muscle hypertrophy can considerably impact a muscle's ability to produce force and power. Motor unit recruitment refers to increasing the amount of motor units during contraction which will increase the amount of force generated. In regarding to strength development, its beneficial to recruit high-threshold motor units during training and raises the potential for positive strength-power adaptations. Now we have Neuromuscluar inhibition. This is the reduction in the neural drive of a given muscle group during voluntary muscle actions that may negatively affect force production due to the neural feedback received from muscle and joint receptors.
