Training muscular endurance can lead to improved ability to engage in long bouts of low intensity endurance work.
43:12 - 46:02 (02:50)
Summary
Training muscular endurance can lead to improved ability to engage in long bouts of low intensity endurance work. Focus on doing three to five sets of 12 to 100 reps with mainly concentric movements, avoiding major eccentric loads or slow eccentric movements.

Planks are beneficial for building endurance of the postural muscles such as the spinal erectors, abdominal muscles, and upper neck muscles.
46:02 - 48:16 (02:14)
Summary
Planks are beneficial for building endurance of the postural muscles such as the spinal erectors, abdominal muscles, and upper neck muscles. Symmetry while doing planks helps in building muscular endurance for better posture and reduces asymmetries in postural muscles.
