Strength Training Response

Meaning

Strength Training Response refers to the composite physiological and adaptive changes that occur in the human body following repeated, progressive resistance exercise, encompassing muscular, skeletal, and endocrine system adaptations. A robust response is characterized by muscle hypertrophy, increased bone mineral density, improved insulin sensitivity, and favorable shifts in the anabolic-to-catabolic hormone ratio, such as elevated growth hormone and testosterone. The quality and magnitude of this response are critical indicators of overall metabolic and hormonal health.
