Physical Education - The core components of fitness: muscular power (MP)
Muscular power (MP)
the ability to use strength quickly to produce an explosive effort.
Muscular power is a combination of and . It is important for all
explosive movements such as sprinting, passing, jumping, etc. 'Explosive'
sports, such as javelin, discus (upper body), high jump, slam dunks (lower
body), also require high levels of muscular strength.
Maximum power requires a compromise of speed and maximum strength.
Approximately 35% of your maximum speed and 35% of your maximum strength
combines to give you your maximal power. To develop power, you need to
improve both speed and strength. Limiting factors for muscular power are
the rate of phosphate energy production and the percentage of white fast
twitch fibres in the muscle. A higher percentage of fast twitch fibres
would indicate a greater capacity to generate power.
