Below is how Carl Froch improves his muscluar endurance. He uses hones in on this training eight weeks before a fight and uses many variations of exercises/bodyweight exercises to shook his body. He also mixes up cardio training (7 mile runs) with sprint interval training. Combined, this gives Carl great strength and endurance. See his regieme below:

PRESS-UP CIRCUIT (Carl starts with 50 of the first variation and goes down in 10's. He takes 30 second breaks but you can have a minutes)

Press-ups x30
Fist Press-ups x20
Finger Press-ups x10
Clap Press-ups x5

SIT-UP CIRCUIT (again Carl starts with 50/30 second break)

Sit-ups x40 (full range of motion - all the way up/down)
Cross-Arm Crunches x30
Bicycles x15
1/2 Sit-ups x10

Normal Dips 2x15 (or failure)
Leaning Dips 2x15 (or failure)

When you say 30 second breaks, do you mean he goes through all the press up exercises and then has a break, or in between each separate exercise?

Also, how many times does he go through the press ups set, multiple or just once?

Sorry, he rests after each variation e.g. Press-ups x30 rest Fists x20 rest. He does this just once and recommends you increase the reps week-by-week. Also, look at my Push-ups/Pull-ups post from about a week ago!
