weight
It is the force (weight) against which the muscles work.
Weights can provide one form of resistance. But in terms of exercising, resistance means anything that makes you work harder. Pushing against an immovable object, such as a wall (isometric exercise) provides resistance, as does pulling against a thick rubber band (Bowflex and similar exercise machines). Even walking or running uphill can be considered resistance, as you're fighting the pull of gravity against your own body.

Pushing against a wall can provide some resistance and can help engage muscles in your upper body, such as your chest, shoulders, and arms. However, the effectiveness of the exercise may be limited compared to using resistance bands or weights since the wall does not offer adjustable resistance. It can still be a good way to work on your muscular endurance and strength in a pinch.
Resistance? Resistance.
Aerobic exercise is cardio exercise (where you get your heart rate up). Resistance exercise is weight training using resistance.
The type of resistance training that involves muscles to move against resistance through an entire range of motion is called Isokinetic exercise. Here's the definition from the Glencoe Health Book: Isokinetic exercise- activity that involves resistance through an entire range of motion. I hope that helped you! :)
Resistance exercise exerts particular muscles, and as a response, the muscles hypertrophy, causing them to grow larger and increase their work capacity.

Friction and air resistance are two forces that work against inertia. Friction occurs when two surfaces rub against each other, causing resistance to motion. Air resistance is caused by the friction of air molecules against an object moving through the air, slowing it down.
