Below a certain level of intensity, strength training will do little for you. If you are capapble of lifting two hundred pounds for eight reps and you stop a seven, it should be obvious that the exercise was not productive as it could be.
The one thing that separates strength training exercises from other types of exercises, such as running or biking, is that it is much harder to do. The dramatic changes occur in the body as a result of lifting weights due to the intense nature of the exercise. There is simply no other way of working the muscles as hard with any other way of training.
Beyond what is needed for daily tasks, the body does not want to put on a large degree of muscle.The tissue is metabolically costly, meaning that if you feed it to keep it alive. And of all things your body needs to do to survive, conserving energy is numero uno. It needs energy to produce the heat that allows for daily living
