Developing Muscular Strength and Endurance

Question 25 • FL-1501300-Personal Fitness

If you want to increase your muscular endurance, which workout would be BEST suited to help you reach your goals?

Answer
A
a workout that uses five sets of five reps and works out each specific muscle group three times a week, treating every other day as a rest day
B
a workout that works out each muscle group each day, using high weight and low repetitions
C
a workout that uses three sets of 15 repetitions and works each muscle group four times a week, treating every other day as a rest day
D
a workout that isolates one muscle group a day, using low weight and low repetitions

Explanation

Muscular endurance is best developed with lighter resistance and more repetitions. Choice C uses three sets of 15 repetitions, which emphasizes doing repeated muscle contractions rather than lifting very heavy loads for just a few reps. The five sets of five in A and the high-weight, low-repetition plan in B are more focused on strength.
