Do you get stronger with training?

Today I went to the grocery store to buy vegetables with my dad and I helped him carry them back to the car and the groceries were so heavy that I was worried I would injure my muscles and I had a neighbour who used to walk over 5 kilometres to a grocery store much further away every single week or day to buy vegetables for her adult children and her children's children. I do not know how a 70 year old woman could be stronger than me. I'm not sure if it lengthened her life cause she did pass away years ago and I think she was at an average age when she passed, so even though she had enormous muscle power, ate a lot of good food, and had a good family, she did not live any longer than the average person in our town.

You generally get stronger yes. It does hit a ceiling depending on you are with just basic strength and conditioning. Your balance and coordination generally improve as well. A lot of things improve by just training. There's no negative to it, aside from the fact that it's very hard to start for most.

The more fragile your body becomes, the more fragile your mind becomes. It takes a long time before you start to recognize your body's decline. But when it does, you better hope it's just an ankle twist.

Yes, if you are persistent in training, and if you practice properly.

If you have the strong will-power, you'll get stronger.
