Muscular Strength - how much you can lift, push, or pull Muscular Endurance : how long you can lift, push, pull or hold - To gain endurance add more time, distance, and repetitions. -Light weights = lean muscles Examples: Aerobic/cardiovascular : continuous movement within the target heart rate that allows muscles to use oxygen to create power (20 minutes or more burns fat; 10 minutes or more works heart muscle) Examples: Wellness: A state of being that enables you to reach your fullest potential.
