"The men were determined to be endurance athletes if they took part in intense endurance sports lasting for at least two hours per session three times a week for at least five years. "

that was the scientists' definition of an endurance athlete for the purpose of the study (for consistent results). it's in no way the definition of an endurance athlete. now you go home
