The explosive aspect of strength — the product of strength and speed of movement.

Detail

Muscular power is the explosive aspect of strength; it is the product of strength and speed of movement. The source gives the formula:

Power = (force × distance) / time

This is the physiological definition; program-design materials may reference it, but the physiological definition is owned here.

Key facts

  • Muscular power = the explosive aspect of strength (product of strength and speed of movement).
  • Formula: Power = (force × distance) / time.

Connections

  • muscular-strength — the force component of power.
  • work — work = distance × force, the numerator of the power formula.
  • atp-pc-system — the energy system for high-power, explosive efforts.
