- 1. The ability of the cardiorespiratory system to work efficiently, supplying nutrients and oxygen to working muscles during sustained physical activity.
- 2. The maximum force (in kg or N) that can be generated by a muscle or muscle group against a resistance.
- 3. The ability to use strength at speed. This helps athletes to jump high, throw far or sprint quickly. Power = Strength x Speed.
- 5. The ability to move a joint fluidly through its complete range of movement.
