Speed, strength and power are indispensable elements for the modern athlete. Power, understood as the ability to generate high levels of force in the shortest possible time, is decisive in every discipline: from jump explosiveness to speed in direction changes. Training power means optimising the coordination between nervous system and muscles, reducing fast-fibre recruitment times and improving movement efficiency. Speed is closely linked to these processes: often the difference between winning and losing lies in the ability to perform the same actions more quickly than opponents. Effective training alternates maximal and plyometric exercises, ballistic movements and tasks with submaximal loads, maximising energy and coordination while reducing overload risk. The integration of systems such as GykoPro, OptoJump Next, WittyPro SEM e WittyPro Timing allows monitoring objective parameters and planning targeted training sessions to maximise performance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
