Resistance Training: The Foundation of Strength
Resistance training includes exercises performed with bodyweight, kettlebells, dumbbells, or resistance bands. These movements challenge your muscles in a controlled way, making them stronger over time.
At Thrivecore, our online coaches design resistance workouts based on your fitness level whether you’re a beginner or advanced. Our programs are especially helpful for Californians who prefer home workouts instead of crowded gyms or unpredictable schedules.
