    Resistance exercise, also known as strength training or weight training, is a type of physical activity that involves using resistance or force against muscles to build strength, endurance, and muscle mass. This can be done using various tools such as weights, resistance bands, or bodyweight exercises like push-ups and squats. The resistance placed on the muscles during these exercises stimulates them to adapt and become stronger over time. Resistance exercise can provide numerous benefits for overall health, including improved muscle function, bone density, metabolism, and even mental well-being.

Dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes is an ecological and public health concern. Certain bacteria are able to neutralize an antibiotic by altering its component to render it ineffective.
