WE 141 - Beginning Weight Training

(1/2)

This is a beginning weight training course in which the principles of weight training are discussed and applied to provide a foundation of total body strength and muscle tone either as an end in itself or in preparation for specialization. This is a beginner level course intended for individuals who are unfamiliar with resistance training, designing a program, or proper lifting technique. We will provide an understanding of the biomechanics involved, muscles used for a given exercise, and program development.
