Muscular EndurancePTFnimda2019-02-07T17:08:33+00:00 Muscular EnduranceWhat is muscular endurance?Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to perform repetitive contractions against a force for an extended period of time. The greater your muscular endurance the higher number of repetitions you could complete. Do you need muscular endurance?By building muscular endurance you will be able to perform physical tasks for a longer period. Whilst strength allows you to lift a force, endurance allows you to continue doing this over time. Benefits to endurance training:
Exercise Classes at Your Workplace Engage Employees at Wellbeing Days Personal Train at Work How to increase muscular endurance?Weight training – aim to complete a movement for at least 12 repetitions. If your muscles are exhausting sooner, then the weight is too heavy and you are building strength not endurance. You can use either machines or free-weights to improve your muscular endurance. Exercise slowly and controlled – avoid jerky movements and throwing the weights about. Lower the resistance slowly when training through the complete range of motion. Many people make the mistake of thinking as they are trying to perform higher repetitions that they should just move faster. Regular exercise – if you want to improve endurance you need to train on a regular basis. Ideally on a daily basis. Work on completing the minimum 12 reps, taking a short rest and then repeating for at least 3 sets on each major muscle group. Challenge the body – you need to ensure it doesn’t become too easy. When comfortable performing repetitions of an exercise, do one of the following: increase weight used, number of reps, number of sets or reduce the length of the rest period. Move better – the more efficiently you are moving the easier it will be to increase your endurance. For beginners it is key to start with simple movements when performing resistance training and building this up. Start on machines and progressing to free-weights is a great way to do this. If you think of your running technique, the more fluid this is the longer you will be able to perform as you will be working far more efficiently.

Which of the following terms describes the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to exert?Muscular Strength: the ability of the muscles to exert a force.
Which of the following describes the ability of the body to exert force against a resistance?Muscular strength is the ability to exert force against a resistance enabling you and I to push, move or lift objects. Greater muscular strength means we can lift, push or pull more.
What ability exerts force for a short period of time?Muscular Strength & Endurance - The ability of a muscle or group of muscles to exert force for a brief period of time (lifting weights will improve muscular strength) and sustain repeated contractions (doing 1 minute of sit-ups or rowing for several minutes will increase muscular endurance).
