Force-velocity profiling assesses an athlete’s ability to produce force across a spectrum of movement speeds. Understanding this spectrum allows coaches to design training that targets the specific needs of an athlete or patient, whether they require improvements in strength, speed, or power.

The topic also addresses muscle fiber type transitions, emphasizing how training can shift fiber types from slow-twitch (Type I) to fast-twitch (Type II), or vice versa, depending on the stimulus. This transition plays a crucial role in performance. You will learn how different training protocols can influence fiber type composition and optimize performance in a variety of sports or rehab.
