Document Summary
Maximal force that a muscle or a muscle group can generate. 1-repition maximum maximal weight individual can lift with 1 single effort. People select a weight that they know they can lift at least 1 time: can perform 2+ add weight until person can only lift 1 time. Measure of strength in the laboratory in the weight room. Quantification of static & dynamic strengths performed at various speeds & angles in joint"s rom. Change in the structure of the muscle & its neural control. Power rate at which work is performed: p=f(cid:4672)dt(cid:4673)=fv. Speed: more innate quality changes little with training. Functional application of both strength & speed of movement. Key component in every sport & competitive activity. Ex: offensive lineman with a bench press of 1rm of 200kg may be able to control a defensive lineman with a bench press of 1rm of 150kg if he can move his 1rm at a faster speed.
