What are the ways to increase explosive power?

What are the methods to increase explosive power? There are many methods for explosive power training. Of course, different sports have different explosive power training methods and different targetedness. For example, you can do no-load jumping training at the beginning. After your body adapts to this training and your coordination becomes better, you can continue with jumping training with increased load, and then continue with weight training, one by one, step by step.

As you do the following exercises, think in terms of "speed of movement." After the pre-contraction, the muscle should strive to complete the main movement (concentric contraction) as quickly as possible. In other words, when doing eccentric contraction or isometric (static) contraction, try to make the muscles in a state of maximum tension, and then quickly switch to concentric contraction. This is key with explosive type movements, of which sprinting is an example. In most jumping exercises, the pre-contraction is actually the transition between foot strike and take-off - or the passage through a "stance position" that causes an isometric contraction. In actual weight-bearing exercises, the weight and number of repetitions should be determined according to each individual's level of development. Generally speaking, use about 50% - 60% of the maximum weight you can bear. Do exercises that involve a variety of joint movements.

The above are some methods to increase explosive power. When doing explosive power training, pay attention to the training methods, training speed, and intensity that change over time to allow the body to have a gradual adaptation process, which is also the best way to train explosive power. While training, you must also protect yourself and not be too hasty. Perseverance is important.
