The Basics

Methods of training resistance exercises should be oriented toward athletic development through

Maximum Strength :Increasing speed of movement by creating maximum effort.

Explosive Strength :Training acceleration or change in direction of movement with significant external resistance.

Speed Strength : Speed of movement is achieved by overcoming relatively small resistance

Strength Endurance :Sustained force production over long duration.

Local Muscular Endurance : continuous speed at sub maximal intensity.
