Many will argue that the perfect workout doesn’t exist, while others will swear by a training program that they haven’t strayed from in years. Finding the best workout for you is a hard task and can sometimes feel impossible. Many questions come into play, like ‘how much time do I have?, ‘What are my goals?’ ‘How much cardio should I do a day?’

An optimal workout should consist of a variety of movements that put your muscles under tension so that they can break down, recover and come back bigger and stronger. Carry on reading to discover our top recommendations.

How to Boost Your Muscular Endurance

Here are some tips to boost your muscular endurance and get you the results you are looking for! ‡

1. Try Supersets in Your Training

Supersets will stimulate hypertrophy and muscular endurance at the same time. This is a great option for those doing full body workouts as it speeds up the session. Klean BCAA Powder + ATP® can act as a direct fuel source for your muscles during intense exercise like this. ‡

2. Shorten Your Rest Times

Shortening your rest times will increase the intensity of your workout and boost your cardio. Perfect for those under a time crunch who need to be in and out of the gym fast.

Fuel these kinds of workouts with Klean Pre-Workout, our uniquely designed pre-workout with all natural nitrates and organic coffee. ‡

3. Focus on Both Strength and Endurance

By focusing on both strength and endurance training, you will get bigger and stronger whilst also improving your cardiovascular system. Our Creatine Monohydrate Powder can increase power output and deliver the muscles with extra energy, allowing you to perform more reps.

More reps means more muscle gains! ‡

4. Include Cardio in Your Training

Introduce cardio that works the whole body, like rowing, swimming, or HIIT. This will dramatically improve your endurance and aid in recovery.

How Much Cardio Should You Do a Day?

You’ve probably heard the common myth that “cardio kills gains” – but that’s quite the opposite! Cardio is a great exercise to aid in building muscle – granted you’re eating enough to make up for your exertion.

Cardio is also essential for a healthy heart. When performing cardio, the blood flow it creates can help your body in delivering vital nutrients to your muscles.

Try at least 10-15 minutes at a moderate pace before your workouts, and a dedicated session once a week, where you focus simply on cardio and endurance.

What is the Fastest Way to Improve Muscular Endurance?

Athletes are always looking to speed up the process – but deep down, we all know that patience is key. Consistency and dedication will bring you the results that you are looking for. As long as you find the right routine that works for you, include the key principles we discussed in this blog and fuel your body efficiently – you’ll be a prime athlete in no time!
