History of Introduction to Strength & Conditioning
The origins of Strength & Conditioning trace back to early physical culture and athletic training. Ancient warriors and Olympians used forms of resistance and functional movement to build physical dominance.
In the modern era, the discipline evolved through sports science and exercise physiology, particularly in the 20th century, as professional coaches developed systematic programs to improve athletes’ performance and prevent injury.
Today, Strength & Conditioning is not limited to athletes — it’s a vital fitness foundation for anyone seeking a balanced, strong, and functional body.
