ABSTRACT
The history of strength training might date back to the beginning of mankind. Needless to say, this does not go beyond the level of imagination.<br>The main theory of strength training, which is known today as progressive overload, was initially founded by Milo of Crotona who in the 6 th century B.C. carried a bull to strengthen his body. As the weight of the bull increased, muscle strength increased as well, which is similar to resistance training as seen in weights and various weight machines used today. The dumbbell was used from the 3 rd century, where light barbells became common in training from the 17 th century but heavy weights were not used until the 19 th century.<br>Scientific research on strength training began in 1950 with an American researcher, Peter Karpovich, which is still used to this day.
