English term

weight-training

English to Arabic Medical Sports / Fitness / Recreation
Please note that this is weight-training not weight-lifting. I do not think that رفع الأثقال is the best translation here, I would like to hear your suggestions.

Here is a sentence where the term is used:

"The athletes will have access to weight-training rooms and gymnasiums"

Thanks.

التمرين بالأثقال الحرة

التمرين بالأثقال الحرة في مقابل التمرين باستخدام آلات الجمانيزيوم.
