POWER TRAINING Flashcards
power
the product of an applied force + the resultant velocity of movement as a result of the force
(power = force x velocity)
all power submodalities are forms of ______
-geared towards helping the body create as much ___ as possible
-resistance training
-power
single effort power events
1 maximal effort to create power
-ex: high jump, long jump, driving a golf ball, hitting a baseball
-easy to train for- more specific + you know what to work on for the 1 specific power expression
repeated effort power events
repeated near maximal effort bouts to create power
-ex: football, basketball, soccer
-we see this a lot in team sports
4 submodalities that improve power production
-heavy resistance
-ballistic resistance
-olympic lifting
-plyometrics
4 submodalities that improve power production
heavy resistance
increases overall force production shifting the force velocity curve to the right
-power increases as a result
4 submodalities that improve power production
ballistic resistance
causes rate coding increases, muscle recruitment patterns changes, + muscle synchronization improvements
4 submodalities that improve power production
Olympic lifting
causes a combination of improvements seen from heavy resistance + ballistic training
4 submodalities that improve power production
plyometrics
improves the storage + utilization of elastic energy, interactions of contractile + elastic elements, potentiation of contractile + elastic filaments, as well as increases stretch reflexes produced by muscle spindles
-technique for plyometrics can be very difficult, usually BW
explain idea behind heavy resistance training in power programs
if total force is increased, total power will ultimately be increased due to shifted force-velocity curve
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
heavy resistance example
-squat pattern
-hip hinge pattern

program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
are assistance exercises prescribed in heavy resistance
no
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
heavy resistance frequency
1-3x per week
-to allow complete recovery between sessions
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
heavy resistance intensity
85-100% 1RM or greater than 100% 1RM
-can go greater than 100% if using heavy negatives
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric

3-6 reps or 1-6 reps (if greater than 100%)
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
heavy resistance rest interval
2-5 minutes
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
heavy resistance tempo
2/0/2 or 0/0/3 (if greater than 100%)
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
Olympic frequency
1-3x per week
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
Olympic intensity
70-80% 1RM
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
Olympic volume
3-6 sets, 3-6 reps
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
Olympic rest interval
2-5 minutes
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
Olympic tempo
0/0/0
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
ballistic
continual acceleration throughout the entire concentric phase rather than slowed to a stop before returning to start position
-not many movement patterns we can do
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
describe traditional heavy resistance in comparison to ballistic
traditional heavy resistance must decelerate during concentric which causes decreased activation of agonist + increased activation of antagonist in TRADITIONAL
program variables for heavy resistance, Olympic, ballistic, plyometric
what adaptations does ballistic cause
-rate coding increases
-muscle recruitment patterns change
-muscle synchronization improvements
