Thus, there are sports whose main foundation is the power or explosive development of force (i.e. maximum manifestation of force in the shortest possible time) such as jumps and pitches in athletics, football or some martial arts. In others such as swimming, cycling, canoeing, etc., the goal is to acquire optimal levels of muscle strength. Finally, other sports require a high degree of muscular endurance without compromising power (Bompa, 2015; 2001; Cometti, 2002). This is the case of sports such as basketball, handball, hockey, badminton... After the periods of anatomical adaptation (preparation of muscle groups and joints for strength training) and maximum strength in which we use predominantly general means, a transition to more specific means of force development becomes necessary in order to achieve the expected adapt...
