Strength training helps prevent injury by improving muscular strength and enhancing joint stability. By creating stronger muscles, tendons, and ligaments, individuals can better support their joints during physical activities. Strength training also addresses muscle imbalances, targeting both agonistic and antagonistic muscles to reduce the risk of overuse injuries. Furthermore, increased strength enables safer execution of various movements, ultimately contributing to overall functional fitness and reducing occurrences of injuries both during workouts and daily activities.
