1. Hypertrophy training (muscle building)

that lead to growth through targeted regeneration . It's ideal for anyone who wants to achieve visible results in muscle mass and body definition.
2. Maximum strength training
Goal: To develop the highest possible strength in a single movement. Typical for powerlifting, competitive sports, and advanced athletes.
Training parameters:
Maximum strength training focuses not on building muscle, but on increasing neuromuscular efficiency . It is particularly suitable for experienced athletes who are specifically working on their strength performance.
3. Strength endurance training
Goal: Muscular fatigue resistance over a longer period . Typical for functional fitness, endurance, and rehabilitation sports.
Training parameters:
Strength endurance training is particularly suitable for beginners or to improve general fitness. It is also helpful for weight loss.
This form of training is effective due to the high calorie consumption.
