Which of the following assessments is NOT used for measuring muscular endurance?

The deadlift is primarily considered a measure of muscular strength rather than muscular endurance. In assessing muscular strength, the focus is on the maximum amount of force a muscle or group of muscles can produce in a single effort. The deadlift involves lifting a maximal load from the ground, which tests the ability of the muscles to exert force at high intensity, but it does not typically involve performing a high number of repetitions over time, which is how muscular endurance is assessed.

On the other hand, exercises like the curl-up, push-up, and bench press can be performed for multiple repetitions, allowing for an evaluation of how long the muscles can sustain repeated contractions over time. These assessments focus on the ability of muscle groups to continue exerting force against a resistance without fatigue, which aligns more closely with defining muscular endurance.
