Muscle Development
This type of training is best achieved by working isolated areas with some form of resistance such as weights. Resistance training can be incorporated into an overall training program and should be designed by a qualified professional.

To
improve either muscle strength or size, the muscle cells are purposely damaged through a
process of overloading. The body reacts instinctively to
repair the damaged cells so they can cope with any future overload, increasing their size
and strength in the process.
