Speed |
Skills and abilities needed to achieve high movement velocities |
|
Agility |
Skills and abilities needed to explosively change movement velocities or modes |
|
Speed-endurance |
Ability to maintain maximal movement velocities or repeatedly achieve maximal accelerations and velocities |
|
Special-endurance |
Ability to repeatedly perform maximal or near-maximal efforts in competition-specific exercise:relief (work:rest) patterns |
|
Force |
Product of mass and acceleration |
|
Impulse |
The change in momentum resulting from a force, measured as the product of force and time |
|
Power |
The rate of doing work, measured as the product of force and velocity |
|
Velocity specificity |
Final movement velocity targeted when a mass is being accelerated |
|
Stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) |
An eccentric-concentric coupling phenomenon in which muscle-tendon complexes are forcibly lengthened, or stretch loaded, and immediately shortened in a reactive or elastic manner |
|
Complex training |
Combination of progressive plyometric and heavy resistance methods within same training session to enhance their working effect |
|
Reactive ability |
A characteristic of explosive strength exhibited by SSC actions that can be improved through reactive-explosive training |
|
Reaction time |
Attribute that is relatively untrainable and correlates poorly with movement action time or performance in many explosive events |
|
Flight phase |
Portion of running movement in which both feet are off the ground |
|
Support phase |
Portion of running movement in which one foot makes contact with the ground Consists of eccentric braking and concentric propulsion |
|
Stride length |
Breadth of running stride, correlates primarily with ability to accelerate quickly |
|
Stride frequency |
Tempo of running stride, correlates primarily with maximal running speed |
|
Continuous tasks |
Tasks with no identifiable beginning or end
|
|
Discrete tasks |
Tasks with defined start and end, short duration |
|
Serial Tasks |
Tasks with defined start and end which are performed in sequence |
|
Volume-load |
The product of work volume and intensity |
