About Endurance
the ability to exert force without fatigue
Endurance is the capacity to withstand stress or discomfort over time, crucial in sports for endurance like running, cycling, and swimming. It's influenced by physiological functions, muscle strength, and psychology. Fatigue, the primary limiting factor, varies among individuals but can be improved through proper training. Key components of endurance include cardiovascular fitness, which encompasses the lungs, heart, and circulatory system's ability to transport oxygen during prolonged exercise, and muscular endurance, the ability to exert force without fatigue. Both can be enhanced through targeted training, leading to improved energy system efficiency, muscle fiber recruitment, and overall sport performance. Embrace the power of sports endurance and elevate your fitness journey.
