Vocabulary
By conditioning ...
Hi
From a book about bodybuilding:
Strength training, more commonly known as weightlifting, improves
muscle tone by conditioning the musculoskeletal system through
resistance to weights. Beginners should start with least resistance,
working their way up to heavier weights in time. Muscle pain is a
normal result of weightlifting; the absence of contraction signifies no
resistance, which necessitates heavier weights.
Does it say that: weightlifting makes our muscles more tensed by "training" (conditioning) our musculoskeletal system and this happens when our muscles show resistance to weights?

Hi
And how should I understand the word "conditioning"? Because it appears more often in the text.

In the context of weight training I'd say it's just a synonym for "strengthening" in most cases.
