Relationship Between One Repetition Maximum Strength and Peak Power Output for the Free-Weight Bench Press Exercise [PDF]

, 2013
Strength and conditioning coaches are often interested in improving power output in their athletes. As many coaches are aware that power is the product of force and velocity, an emphasis is often placed on training with loads that correspond to peak ...

Physical fitness components associated with performance in a multiple-sprint test. [PDF]

, 2006
PURPOSE: The 5-m repeat-sprint test (5-m RST) measures resistance to fatigue after repeated bouts of short-duration, high-intensity activity. This study determined the components of fitness associated with performance in 5-m RSTs.
