Abstract: When designing a strength training program, a physical fitness expert must take into account gender differences in muscle capabilities, the level of fitness, as well as the effects that these differences have on each individual. The aim of this study was to determine the implications of age and gender differences in strength training for children and adolescents. A review of studies was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines (Moher, Liberati, Tetzlaff, & Altman, 2009). The following databases were used for literature search: Google Scholar, Medline, Science Direct, PubMed, Web of Science, and Research Gate. A total of 68 studies met the defined criteria for inclusion in the systematic review and further analysis. Numerous osteogenic benefits and essential factors of physical activity contribute to the growth and development of the skeletal system in boys and girls during this age period. Children who regularly engage in physical activities involving their body weight and participate in exercise programs that include strength training with external resistance experience an increase in bone density. Participation in such programs during the preadolescent period allows boys and girls to achieve strength gains and other abilities greater than the ordinary gains resulting from growth and maturation. Recent research has clearly shown that if the volume and intensity of exercise are appropriate for their age, boys and girls can increase muscle strength beyond the limits achievable through mere growth and maturation.
