Muscular Strength and Endurance

Muscular strength is the maximum amount of force your muscles can exert in a single effort, like lifting a heavy object. Muscular endurance, on the other hand, is the ability of your muscles to perform repeated contractions or sustain a force over time without becoming tired. Both are important for overall fitness, supporting daily activities, preventing injuries, and improving performance. Strength focuses on how much you can lift or push at once, while endurance relates to how long you can maintain activity or repeated efforts. Together, they contribute to a balanced, healthy muscular system.
