Fitness and Strength Training

In a fitness and strength training routine, the focus is on general health and overall fitness rather than maximizing muscle size or strength. This type of training is ideal if you're trying to lose weight or if you practice another sport and want to address a weakness.
For example, gymnasts may benefit from forearm exercises if they experience wrist issues, or shoulder exercises to support work on the rings.
