Regular exercise strengthens your heart and lungs and it can strengthen bones, slowing down the process of osteoporosis. It can help you move easily by keeping your joints, tendons and ligaments more flexible. Can help you lose weight when combined with good eating habits or maintain ideal weight by burning excess calories and promote sense of well being.

WHAT IS MUSCULAR ENDURANCE?

Muscular endurance is the ability to continue contracting a muscle, or group of muscles, against resistance, such as weights or body weight, over a period of time.Increasing the performance of these muscles means they can continue to contract and work against these forces. Greater muscular endurance allows a person to complete more repetitions of an exercise, for example, pushups or squats.

BENEFITS OF MUSCULAR ENDURANCE TRAINING

According to the American Council on Exercise (ACE), the benefits of muscle endurance include:

helping maintain good posture and stability for longer periods

improving the aerobic capacity of muscles improving the ability to carry out daily functional activities, such as lifting heavy items

increasing athletic performance in endurance based sports 

HOW TO MEASURE MUSCULAR ENDURANCE

Muscular endurance tests measure how many repetitions of a movement people can do before the muscles reach a state of fatigue and cannot continue the exercise. Many tests focus on measuring upper and lower body muscle endurance by measuring how many pushups, squats, or situps people can achieve.
