Dynamic Strength Index

1. How Strong we are?

2. How we apply it in Sports?
3. 0.35 in CMJ, approach faster, 1 legged even faster

How do we test?

1. IMTP or Back Squat (How to get peak force) – IMTP with barbell can be a problem, BELT
Squat(lower body max output) * Grip Strength – Limiting factor / TRAP BAR ISO PULL

130 DEGREE IN KNEE AND 155-165 IN HIP

2. CMJ (NO arms) – WITH ARMS will be over IMTP

CMJ / IMTP

LOOK AT BODYWEIGHT

Athlete 1

2468 / 3107

= 0.79

Athlete 2

1775 / 2335 = 0.75

High 0.80 > STRENGTH / STRENGTH – SPEED

Mod 0.60 – 0.80 MIXED
Low < 0.60 MORE HIGH VELOCITY LIFTING /
Plyometrics / Jumps very low strength training

Does not predict athleticism. Determine if phases are working or not.

Direct correlation of good vertical > IMPULSE (Produce force over longer period = 2 FOOT / Produce
shorter amount of time to produce = 1 FOOT benefits)

- Deeper range of motion vs Short

CONTRACTILE ELEMENTS VS TENDONS & EXPLOSIVE-NESS

 Moderate amount of training

 Continue doing sprinting, plyometrics, jumps (SUPERPOWER) and put moderate amount of
lifting, ISOMETRIC ISO etc.

<0.60 DEFICIT (MUSCULAR ATHLETE? NOT EXPLOSIVE)

2 days a week (3-4 reps x 3-4 sets) = MAINTAIN and focus on HIGHER VELOCITY
