  3. 5. strength – Builds the ability of muscles to exert maximum force (lifting heavy weight).
  4. 8. exercise – Strengthens muscles through movement (muscle changes length, like lifting weights).
  5. 10. strength – Strengthens muscles in your abdomen and lower back for stability and balance.
  6. 11. weights – Uses equipment like dumbbells and barbells to build strength and coordination.
  7. 12. exercise – Builds strength without movement (holding a position, like a plank).
  8. 13. interval – The time you rest between sets or exercises to recover.
  9. 14. contraction – Muscle shortens as it contracts (lifting a weight).
  10. 15. overload – Gradually increasing weight, reps, or intensity to keep improving.
  11. 17. weights – Use gym machines to guide movement and target specific muscles safely.
  12. 18. – Doing two exercises back-to-back with little or no rest to save time and increase intensity.

  4. 7. – Increases muscle size (muscle growth from training).
  5. 9. max (1RM) – The maximum weight you can lift for one repetition.
  6. 16. – A group of repetitions done in a row before resting.
  7. 17. endurance – Improves how long muscles can keep working without getting tired.
