The ability of muscles to perform repetitive work over time.
What is muscle endurance?
300
This component of the overload principle is being changed if you increase your daily run from 30 minutes to 40 minutes.
What is duration?
300

This component of the overload principle is being changed if you start taking 2 yoga classes per day as opposed to 1.
What is frequency?
400
Energy producing process that a sprinter is using for energy production.
What is anaerobic?
400

The average resting pulse rate for teens and young adults.
What is 70 beats per minute?
500
A potentially life threatening condition that results from a buildup of body heat and can cause extreme fatigue, intense dizziness, confusion, and loss of consciousness.
