Muscle endurance: ability to perform many repetitions w/ resistance (use gravity to our advantage) Allow 2 days rest of the same muscle group. Isometric: muscle contracts but doesn"t change in length. Isotonic: muscle contracts & changes length but the same throughout 2 kinds: concentric phase: muscle shortening ex.
