Are Strength and Power the same thing, /fit/?
>>42118784
I would say power is mostly used to describe explosive strenght. Which is funny because powerlifting is not explosive
Power is just strength applied quickly
>>42118784
no
strength is resistance to deformation
power is work divided by time
in your tard coloquial terms theyre still not the same but power requires a lot of strength
>>42118784
Strength is basically a measure of force you can output, and Power = Force x Velocity. Like if you squat 200 kg and it takes you two seconds to grind the rep out, then Chad comes over and bangs the rep out in 0.5s then his power output is four times greater assuming you have the same ROM.
Some people are more explosive closer to their 1RM than others Shane Hamman and Stan Efferding both set world records in the squat, so it is basically a definitive 1RM for each and the weights were fairly close. But Hamman is one of the fastest squatters ever and takes only a fraction of a second to set a world record, but Efferding isn't very explosive and takes almost seven seconds from beginning his descent to locking the weight out. They are essentially as strong as one another, Hamman is more explosive though.

power force applied divided by time.
Strength is just sheer ability to apply force.
A high amount of strength will increase power output
No, he can't fucking punch as hard as Tyson. This is fucking ridiculous.
>>42118784
What tyson had wasnt power but explosivity and cardiovascular endurance
Also hafthor is a bad choice for this picture. Eddie or shaw would be better

This is so armchair it hurts.

Did he say so? And why not?
>>42119524
ya, but is he stronger than Tyson?

>6 times podium WSM
>Not a good example of strength
>>42119635
>explosivity isn't power
>>42118784
Power is just combining speed with strength
That's why Cardio exists kids

Wew lad.

No of course not.
Strength is moving a heavy load, power is explosive movement.
power is how much energy you can output per unit time
>>42118784
In terms of weight training and athletics, strength is more about how much you can move regardless of time, and power is how fast you can move that object.
Strength generally correlates with size, power correlates with both strength and muscle fibre recruitment speed.
At least from what I have gathered. I am not an expert.
