Women Have Longer Endurance Times than Men
American Physiological Society (APS)

A number of studies have found that women are capable of longer endurance times than men when performing certain isometric exercises at the same percent of maximum strength. A recent study conducted at the University of Colorado confirms those findings for different tasks.
