<onlyinclude>'''Stamina enhancement''' can be described as an increased ability to engage in physically and mentally taxing activities without the development of fatigue. Although this effect is commonly mistaken for [[stimulation]], it differs as it is not a direct increase in one's energy levels. Instead, it is an increase in one's resilience in performing an activity combined with a mitigation of general fatigue. | <onlyinclude>'''Stamina enhancement''' can be described as an increased ability to engage in physically and mentally taxing activities without the development of fatigue.
