What is resistence training?

Resistance Training is simply the basic workout of lunges, push-ups, sit-ups, walking, running at a slow and steady pace, and stretching. It is mostly used for warm-ups at the beginning of an intense or more than 30 minute work out. If you want something to get you pumped for more or maybe just getting relaxed then I would choose to practice Resistance Training daily and allow 1 or 2 day a week breaks.

What is the difference between resistance training and strength training?

Strength training is the use of resistance to muscular contraction to build the strength, anaerobic endurance, and size of skeletal muscles. There are many different methods of strength training, the most common being the use of gravity or elastic/hydraulic forces to oppose muscle contraction. See the resistance training article for information about elastic/hydraulic training, but note that the terms "strength training" and "resistance training" are often used interchangeably.
