Explosive Training
While traditional strength training measures how much weight you can lift, explosive training evaluates how quickly you can move weight. Explosive training helps with reaction speed and agility. For example, if you slip while walking, your hip and leg muscles react in milliseconds to thrust your foot forward, to help you regain your balance and avoid a fall.
