Resistance training are exercises which both strengthens and challenges the muscles. While cardio workouts are intended to boost metabolism by burning calories, resistance training is intended to work the muscles to fatigue so small tears will then form in the muscle tissue. The body then has to repair these tears, which will then build muscles. Other names for it include weight training and strength training.
