strength training
This term refers specifically to the methodology of using resistance—such as free weights, machines, or body weight—to challenge muscles. It is often used interchangeably with "resistance training" in professional fitness contexts, though "strength training" more explicitly emphasizes the goal of increasing maximal force production.
In a clinical or athletic setting, the term carries a connotation of structured progression and physiological adaptation. It is distinct from general "exercise" or "cardio" by its focus on anaerobic effort and muscular hypertrophy rather than cardiovascular endurance.
