Question 20 • FL-3026010-HOPE-Physical Education (Core) Sem 1 - Flex

When comparing a well-designed muscular strength workout to a well-designed muscular endurance workout, you would conclude that __________.

Answer

fewer repetitions with heavier weights would build muscular strength, while less weight and more repetitions would build muscular endurance

more weight and more repetitions build strength, while less weight and fewer repetitions build endurance

moderate weight with high repetitions builds strength, while heavy weight with low repetitions builds endurance

less weight with low repetitions builds strength, and moderate weight with low repetitions builds endurance

Explanation

Muscular strength is developed by lifting heavier weights for fewer repetitions, which challenges the muscles to produce greater force. Muscular endurance is developed by using lighter weights for more repetitions, training the muscles to work for longer. Therefore, choice A correctly describes the two workouts.
