Endurance

Read 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 and Doctrine and Covenants 89:18–20, then explain how caring for your body relates to endurance and discipleship.

Explain what physical endurance is and identify at least three activities that require sustained effort over time.

Assess your current endurance by completing a baseline effort (such as a timed run, hike, swim, bike, or bodyweight circuit) and identify one physical and one mental limiter.

Create a personal endurance plan that includes frequency, intensity, recovery, hydration, and nutrition considerations for improvement.

Complete a sustained endurance effort lasting at least 45 minutes (run, ruck, bike, swim, or equivalent), maintaining steady pacing and safe form throughout.

Complete a second endurance effort on a different day that emphasizes a different modality or terrain, demonstrating pacing and recovery awareness.

Perform a fatigue-based circuit (bodyweight or loaded) that challenges muscular endurance, demonstrating proper form under tired conditions.

Demonstrate proper warm-up, cooldown, stretching, hydration, and post-effort recovery practices after an endurance activity.

Lead or pace another Saint or small group during an endurance activity, adjusting speed and encouragement to help them finish safely.

Explain what you learned about pacing, discomfort, and recovery from your endurance efforts, including one mistake and one improvement.

Describe how developing endurance helps you better serve others and remain faithful when tasks are long or difficult.
