Sentences with phrase «improve peak force»

Not exact matches

Training with weightlifting derivatives improves weightlifting derivative performance, lower body strength (as measured by 1RM squat and force production), peak power output, and vertical jump height.

Most people don't do it because it forces them to use less weight, but it has massive potential to improve bicep peak and overall arm mass.

In contrast, using either constant resistance or variable resistance (which both increase peak bar speeds) could be helpful for improving force at higher velocities.

To improve the ability to generate maximum force, the athlete does need to engage in both maximum effort lifting (to improve absolute power peak and motor unit synchronization) and dynamic effort lifting (to improve motor unit synchronization and speed of contraction), the former of which includes maximal or near maximal stimulus, the latter of which includes lower weight (~ 50 - 60 % of maximum) moved at maximum velocity.

Also worth noting - though improving maximum strength alone will not necessarily improve speed strength, a greater force peak IN CONJUNCTION with speed strength training will result in improved performance.
