A person's cardiorespiratory endurance is how well their heart and lungs can
send oxygen to their working muscles so they can keep making energy for a
long time.
It is the body's ability to do big muscle movements for a long time. This is
called cardiorespiratory fitness.

If you want to know what muscular strength is, it's the most force that a muscle
or group of muscles can turn against a resistance.
What do you need to get stronger muscles? The answer is some kind of
resistance. People who want to get stronger usually work out on land with free
weights and weight tools.
For a full-on effort in building muscle strength, what does study say? TITLE: 2–
5 sets of 2–10 reps done completely out of breath.
Why can't some people work out to get stronger muscles? They have problems
with their bones or joints that make it hard or impossible for their muscular
system to do what it needs to do.

Muscle hypertrophy is the growth of muscle tissue, which means that it gets
bigger over time.
Muscle atrophy is the loss of muscle tissue due to sickness or not using it
enough.
What's the difference between strength training on land and water? If you want
to build strength, you can use tools on land. The type of equipment you use
depends on how much weight you are lifting.
The amount of mass, drag, or weight that the equipment adds to the water, as
well as the speed at which the movement is made, determine resistance.
, The ability of a muscle to hold a set contraction for a long time or to apply force
over and over again is called muscular endurance.
How do you test muscle endurance? – To make an assessment, you either
measure how long a muscle can hold a contraction or count how many
contractions it can do in a certain amount of time.
What is the best number of sets and reps to build stamina in your muscles? -
ANSWER: There is no best amount of sets and reps for building endurance in
muscles. Like getting stronger, plans should be tailored to each person and
changed up often to get the best results.
How many multiple rounds are usually suggested when the goal is to build
endurance? —ANSWER: Sets of 20 rounds or more are usually recommended
for people who want to build endurance. The sets can be different levels of hard.
What should the muscle feel like after two sets of long-term exercise? -
ANSWER: The muscle should feel tired, but not completely worn out.
What will make the water more resistant? - ANSWER: You can gradually raise
the resistance by
Putting more force against the resistance of the water,
Adding more surface area or length to the handle,
by adding things.
Is it possible to train just to get stronger or to improve your endurance? •
ANSWER: Yes, but these two parts of health are linked and can't be separated.
To answer your question, flexibility means being able to move your parts
through their full range of motion.
Why is it important to be able to change your mind sometimes? - ANSWER
