Document Summary

Mass x acceleration: either add force, or add acceleration. Different methods produce different training outcomes: different neural, muscular, and metabolic processes are involved. Periodized/planned programs produce greater gains in: max strength. Regardless of body weight: relative strength. Relative to body weight: lean body mass. Strength training can improve performance faster than doing the skills on their own. Strength provides foundation: endurance, agility, coordination, balance, cannot do these activities without strength training. All aspects of fitness influence function and functional movements. Strength is health protective: independent of other factors such as bmi, aerobic fitness, and muscle mass. Inverse relationship with strength and mortality risk: those who have higher strength have lower mortality rates. Thinner individuals exhibit: lower strength, more illness, greater mortality. Than those who have normal body weight. Those with lowest grip strength had greater risk for thoe with high grip strength.
