Strength-Endurance vs Muscular Endurance

Core Difference
Strength-endurance involves repeated force production against moderate resistance, while muscular endurance involves sustained low-force output.

Strength-Endurance Focus
Emphasizes maintaining force output under fatigue.

Muscular Endurance Focus
Emphasizes repetition tolerance at low relative loads.

Why the Difference Matters
Training one does not automatically develop the other.

Key Takeaway
Strength-endurance requires integration of strength and aerobic support.
