The one common denominator among most all athletes, no matter what their sport, is running. Understanding the importance of muscular endurance in sports, specifically in the act of running, can help lead you to better overall performance while participating in your sport. Strong, healthy muscles will help you go the distance, no matter what sport you participate in.
Whether you are running during a soccer game, playing four quarters of full-court basketball or racing a marathon, your leg muscles provide the strength and endurance you need.
