muscular endurance
Prolonged exertion capacity
Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or muscle group to perform repeated contractions over time without fatigue.
Distinguished from muscular strength, which measures maximum force in a single effort, endurance measures sustained performance: Push-ups test muscular endurance rather than raw strength.
Training for muscular endurance typically involves lighter weights with higher repetitions.
