For endurance training, you will generally use .................. .

  • A.More weight and fewer repetitions
  • B.Less weight and fewer repetitions
  • C.More weight and more repetitions
  • D.Less weight and more repetitions

Answer: D

Endurance training generally uses less weight and more repetitions.

Muscular endurance is the ability to repeat a contraction many times. It is trained with light loads, roughly 40-60% of maximum, lifted for high repetitions, often 15 or more per set, with short rest periods.

More weight and fewer repetitions is the formula for strength and power. Less weight and fewer repetitions gives too little stimulus for either, and more weight with more repetitions cannot be sustained for long and leads to fatigue and injury.
