muscle endurance - the ability of a muscle to move a weight repeatedly, or for an extended period of time.

muscle strength - the greatest amount of weight a muscle can move at a single time.

progressive resistance exercise PRE - exercise that strengthens the skeletal muscles through adding more physical strain on them over time and letting them develop and adapt to this stress.

resistance - force or weight that is used to make the muscle work harder to contract.

skeletal muscles - body tissue that is connected to and moves the bones in the body.
