Strength
Maximal Strength - The ability to produce a maximal amount of force in a single muscular contraction
Static Strength - The type of strength where force is applied against resistance without any movement occuring
Dynamic Strength - The type of strength that involves movement a force is applied to a resistance and muscles change in length concentrically and eccentrically
Strength Endurance - The ability to sustain repeated muscular contractions over a period of time withstanding fatigue
Explosive/Elastic Strength - The ability to produce a maximal amount of force in one or a series of rapid muscular contractions

NCF Abdominal Curl Test (Strength Endurance) - Participant performs continuous sit ups at progressive intensities to a recorded bleep. The test is over once the participant cannot complete 2 consecutive sit ups.
Hand Grip Dynamometer (maximum strength) - Participant would set dial to 0. Holding the dynamometer above there head with a straight arm. The arm is then brought down as they squeeze the grip
Vertical Jump Test (Explosive Strength) - Participant marks the highest point reached with one arm. The participant jumps as high as they can, The difference between height jumped and resting height is explosive strength
-
Plyometric Training - A series of explosive exercises such as hopping, bounding and jumping to improve the speed at which a muscle shortens
Multi-Gym - It is a fitness system that has multiple components designed to perform a wide range of exercises
Weight Training - Uses free standing weights can involve very high resistance and low repetition exercises
Circuit Training - A series of exercise stations arranged in a specific order to usually work alternate muscle groups
-
Muscle and Connective Tissues - Muscle Hypertrophy to increase the FG and FOG. Increased contractile proteins and myofibrils more muscle, Increased tendon and ligament strength to increase the joint stability. Increased bone density and mass to get increased absorption of calcium
Neural Pathways - Increased recruitment of motor units and fibre types to create a greater force of contraction. Decreased inhibition of the stretch reflex increased force of contraction from the agonist
Metabolic Function - Increased energy stores. Increased enzyme activity to more efficient energy production. Increased lactic acid buffering
