If your goal is optimum physical competence, then all 10 general physical skills must be considered and developed The first four: cre, stamina, strength, flexibility are physiological adaptions improved through training, the bottom four: coordination, agility, balance, accuracy are neurological adaptions accomplished through practice. The middle two: power and speed are the result of combining the top four with the bottom four  Today we are going to discuss STAMINA. 'What is STAMINA?  STAMINA is the body's ability to process, deliver, store, and utilize energy.  How do you decipher that for the common client?  Simply put, your muscular endurance, or your body’s ability to contract your muscles and do work for a long period of time  Today were going to answer a few questions.  Why is stamina important?
