A common misconception is that improving endurance is the answer when a person can't perform a basic strength movement, like a pull-up. Instead, focusing on maximal strength training is essential before addressing endurance. Using specific testing methods can help determine whether the issue lies in strength or endurance, guiding effective training strategies.In this clip
