With most of the fitness community obsessed with hypertrophy and strength lifting this channel is teaching me so much about how to lift for maximum linear speed!
Strength is the ability to create force. Power is the ability to create force in a shorter period of time. Unlike machines, people are born with differing levels of strength and power due to stuff like fiber type distribution and neuromuscular characteristics. So some are naturally better generating more force at lower rates and some are better at higher rates. Obviously it's easier to increase the rate of force application with lower loads. And strength, power and speed can all be trained to improve an individual's capacity. But for moderate loads, application of power makes work easier - and at some point makes the difference between what's possible and what's not. Consider clean bar muscle-ups. So no kipping, no false grip, and it's OK to come forward of the bar in the bottom position. It's much, much more difficult to do that motion statically than dynamically (F = MA). It takes a huge amount of force to do a slow rep, and the ability to recruit power when initiating the pull greatly lowers the amount of force needed to complete the movement. But slow reps are certainly possible. Adding strength increases the number of reps a person can do in either mode, but adding power is much more efficient in terms of increasing the max number of reps (which of course will be in the dynamic mode, even for people with relatively high strength and relatively low power). So, returning to F = MA, manipulating the amount of acceleration in an exercise can be a very effective regression to develop the ability to generate force.
Great video! Thanks you Dr Matt Will you be doing the video for other parameters of the velocity curve? Especially power. And you once differentiate single event movement vs multi event, what are the difference?
Okay, I initially disliked this video because it seemed reductionist in the concept of training but then I took a step back and realized the context of it. Hopefully someone doesn’t just watch this and think “this is the only way to train this adaptation” because this is a way not the way. Also, you are a Doctor now lol introduce yourself as such. You earned that shit!
Question! Does the speed of eccentric phase make a difference? Essentially what I’ve been doing for power workouts is slowly controlling the eccentric phase, holding the sticking point for roughly 1 second, then performing the concentric phase as fast as safely possible. Is this an efficient way to build power?
That might be ok but might not be optimal for power. A slow eccentric is great for hypertrophy but if you extend the eccentric too long during power reps you’ll lose some ability to generate power on the concentric
Hello. Very useful notion ... in your opinion, given a constant lean to fat mass ratio across discipline, would it be reasonable to expect that BMI per discipline and sub-disciplines (ex: designated hitter in baseball) would follow a similar curve, where more BMI would allow for more explosiveness, less for more endurance etc. ? Do you have any pointers for me regarding this question? Perhaps some other of your videos, or studies?
Hi Matt, for a soccer in-season periodization how much volume in terms of reps and sets would you program speed strength for both lower and upper body movements?
2:05. When talking about speed of movement in regards to max strength and speed strength, where do you get those numbers from? Are they in the cscs book? Or is this more in the realm of velocity based training?
Yea that’s more of a rule of thumb. For DB jump squats I have seen 30-40% bodyweight. For MB throws there’s a variety of adaptations with different loading
@@TheMovementSystem If you didn't use olympic lifts to train strength-speed, what would be your primary way of developing this? And if trap bar was not available... Do you like using contrast series in the off season or do you prefer using those after a period of strength has been placed down

A very informative channel.
@4:25 ..... P ≠ F/T .... P = F x D/T = F x V

I swear this channel is gold to me
Another awesome video! thanks Matt
Thanks! Appreciate it
Great content brotha!
Thanks Matt, Great content 👍
thank you so much
thank you so much sir, love from India.
Great video!!!
Thank you

That video flew by flet like a minute.... Why 'dynamic' effort for a physiscian makes me wonder why the emphasis on dynamics

“Power Runner Machine”
What do you think of it? Is it beneficial for sprinters? Is it more effective than hip Thrust when it comes to sprinting?
I’m not sure. I’ll have to look into it

How many reps would you recommend for this (if we use around 40% of our 1rm)?
You can still keep it around 2-8 reps. Beyond that you may start to slow down too much to achieve the right adaptation
@@TheMovementSystem how do I progress the strength? Do I complete a max strength test every couple of weeks then reset my 40%? Good video bye the way.

Power = Work/Time
Not Force/Time
Are speed-strength exercises more for compound exercises versus isolation exercises?
Hi Matt, for a soccer in-season periodization how much volume in terms of reps and sets would you program speed strength for both lower and upper body movements?
hi coach hwo many rest between sets for speed strength and what is different between power and speed strength ???? thx coach

Is this method good for karate athletes
How would you work out a 1RM for something like a mes all throw?
Can this science or idea apply to martial arts such as boxing? (i.e. the speed of punches being thrown)
Yes
What exactly mean 40percent 1rm?1rm of what?For example what is my 1rm of medicine ball throws or 1rm of dumbell squat jumps?
Yea that’s more of a rule of thumb. For DB jump squats I have seen 30-40% bodyweight. For MB throws there’s a variety of adaptations with different loading
When would you use strength-speed versus speed-strength , coach?
Strength speed more toward the off season preseason and with force deficient athletes
@@TheMovementSystem If you didn't use olympic lifts to train strength-speed, what would be your primary way of developing this? And if trap bar was not available... Do you like using contrast series in the off season or do you prefer using those after a period of strength has been placed down
Hey man, you said Power = Force / time
That is incorrect.
Power = Force (times) Distance / Time
Or
Power = Force (times) Velocity
