Hello,
I'm an instructor for a college level introductory class to endurance coaching. I'm planning to create a small groups discussion about endurance. I'm hoping to create a student sense about what is endurance and the large spectrum of endurance. I have come up with a few thought provoking questions for this intro level class, but I would appreciate if there are any questions you can add and inspire???
Example questions:
• Come up with the largest vocabulary of words/phrases you can associate with endurance? (pushing through, survival, stamina…)
• Is endurance more of a physiological or mental capacity? pick a side and argue for/against
• How would you measure endurance? Is that "measure" valid across the whole spectrum of endurance sports?
• How do you best define endurance?
Thank you!
