Power

Power = Force x Distance/Time

Power = Strength x Flexibility/Speed

To become faster and a more powerful athlete, you need to exert a greater force, through a greater range of motion, in the shortest amount of time. To become powerful, you need to include:

• Specific speed drills
• Active Isolated stretching
• A functional strength program
• A coordination program or a power program - combining strength & speed through a big range of motion

This program can help you achieve this formula.

Functional power comes from explosive running, skipping, jumping, shuffling & bounding. It is important to build a strong foundation, and grow upon it. Skipping with quick rhythmic explosions will make you stronger. Combine this with a diverse regiment plyometric jumps to get fast and long lasting results. Quick little jumps and double leg hops forward and sideways with change of direction (no extra steps for development of eccentric strength) will generate great power. Bounding also develops power and absolute speed. So, make sure to mix it up and go for length, height and/or width. Combine these drills with your existing weight lifting program for tremendous gains.
