You also lose function in your limbs due to lack of use. Four principles of strength training: adherence, progressive overload, individualization and targeted. Strength and power building and muscle building (hypertrophy) are related but not identical. To build strength and power, use higher weights and fewer repetitions (3-5) and to build muscles lower weights and more repetitions (8-12).
