What is the difference between muscular strength and muscular endurance training?

Answer 1

Aerobic capacity is the endurance of activity on the heart muscle in high or low impact aerobic exercise. Muscle endurance is the amount of weight that you are able to lift without tearing muscle fibers.

Answer 2

Muscular strength is a measure of how much force a muscle can exert in a single effort, while muscle endurance describes the ability of muscles to contract repeatedly over time. Muscle strength and endurance develop together: that is, building muscle strength also helps build endurance and vice versa. However, some exercises and activities are best for developing muscle strength and others for muscle endurance. Both muscular strength and endurance are important components of health-related fitness.

Answer 3

Your degree of cardio-respiratory endurance is how efficiently your heart and lungs process oxygen. You can improve it by doing more fitness exercise ("cardio") such as brisk walking or running.

Your degree of local muscular endurance refers to how long a certain muscle group can work against resistance. Being able to move a relatively heavy weight for one or two repetitions is much different from being able to sustain resistance. For example, put your hands on your hips and squat down until the tops of your thighs are parallel to the floor. The longer you can hold that position, the greater the muscular endurance of the muscles you are using to hold that position. You can improve it by doing a greater number of repetitions of resistance exercise.

Answer 4

Muscular strength is defined as the quantity of force you can exert or the weight you can lift. Muscular endurance is the number of times you can lift a given weight without becoming fatigued (very weary).

Answer 5

Strength training focuses on improving how much you can lift a few times while endurance training focuses on lifting a smaller weight repeatedly.
