Types of Strength
Many variables can be manipulated specifically to reach your desired outcome or goal .
Concentric Strength: overcoming the weight (i.e. Bench press positive.
Eccentric Strength: Allow a weight to overcome your strength.
Isometric Strength: Static hold. Continuous tension throughout the muscle.
Dynamic strength: varying amount of load that your body is overcoming with different joint angles as it pertains to the target muscle
Optimal strength: Amount of strength that is just the right amount to achieve the goals you set. (Quarter back bench press 315. Linebacker benches 450) Priority principle
Speed Strength
Maximum Strength
The amount of strength you can produce regardless of speed. Time is not a factor.
Endurance: your bodies ability to produce contractions over and over again over an extended amount of time.
Limit Strength: a hypnotic trance where your able to overcome physical limitations (strong man contest, old lady picking truck off loved one to save their life)

Speed Strength
- Starting strength: ability to explode from a static position.
- Explosiveness Strength: ability to generate more force as your moving the weight through the movement(Clean to a press)
- Reactive strength: your ability to go from eccentric to concentric. Or ability to change directions very fast and effectively (basketball)
Maximum Strength
The amount of strength you can produce regardless of speed. Time is not a factor.
- Absolute Strength is how much weight you can move irregardless of your body weight
- Relative Strength: strength is relative to the amount of body weight that your carrying.
Endurance: your bodies ability to produce contractions over and over again over an extended amount of time.
Limit Strength: a hypnotic trance where your able to overcome physical limitations (strong man contest, old lady picking truck off loved one to save their life)
