Solution

The correct option is D All of these
  • Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated contractions against a resistance for an extended period of time.
  • A push-up involves several muscle groups like pectorals and deltoids. Swimming involves muscles throughout the entire body including the latissimus dorsi, which is the largest muscle in the back. Sit-ups are abdominal exercises done by lying on your back and lifting your torso.
  • These activities help in increasing muscle mass, improving one’s posture, and stamina.
