Explosive Exercise Written by Mike Stone, Meg Stone, and Hugh Lamont Introduction Before discussing Explosive Exercise in detail it is necessary to define terms and present a theoretical background for the discussion. Of particular importance for this discussion are the concepts of strength, rate of force development and power. Strength can be defined as an ability to produce force (Siff 2001, Stone et al 2001). Because force is a vector quantity, strength will have a magnitude and direction. The magnitude of strength output can range from 0 to 100% and the muscles involved determine the direction of force application.
