* increases bone density and thus more protection against fractures.

Intense exercise
* can also force acid into the esophagus.
* can cause muscle destruction and possible damage to kidneys

  - increase creatinine by increasing muscle breakdown
  - produce a lot of free radicals, which can damage muscle tissue
  - reduce the maximum amount of energy stored in muscle cells
* causes membrane lipid peroxidation
  - tears in muscles producing muscle soreness, swelling and inflammation

Isometric exercise
* build up muscle mass and aerobic exercises build up our heart and lungs.
* differs from dynamic exercise in terms of physiology and applicability.
* involve contracting the muscles without moving the involved joint.
* is an exercise
* release tension and help alleviate neck spasms.
* requires using the muscle to move a short distance against very high resistance.
* sustained contraction of large muscles, such as weight lifting.

Isotonic exercise
* are exercises.
* involves shortening the muscle as tension is developed, like lifting a barbell.
* is accomplished by an alternate contraction and relaxation of large muscles
  - more effective in lowering blood pressure
* strengthen the muscle by using it to move a weight.
