The clear difference between strength and endurance is based on the number of repetitions and the level of resistance. A strength program emphasizes a low number of repetitions with heavy resistance while endurance training involves performing a high number of repetitions with low resistance.

A

Muscular Strength and Endurance Training

17
Q

A stretching program can help improve flexibility. Improving and maintaining flexibility necessitates a program that incorporates specific exercises for each of the body’s major joints. Ballistic and static stretching techniques can be used to perform flexibility exercises.

A

Flexibility Training

18
Q

Activities include throwing a ball, kicking a soccer ball, sprinting, and jumping. It is the rate at which work is completed. It is a measurement of how much energy is created per second, the size of the force applied, and the velocity at which it is applied. (Force x Distance)

A

Power Training
