Limited reproducibility of individual physiological adaptations to repeated endurance exercise training | Journal of Applied Physiology | American Physiological Society journals.physiology.org/doi/…
Power is simple: it depends on only two physiological qualities—strength and velocity (Power = Force × Velocity).
To maximize explosiveness, train both.
Stronger faster = more powerful => improved sports performance 🤸
