You didn't look at the graph carefully. One curve has Force on the left
axis and velocity on the horizontal axis. The other curve has power on the
right axis and velocity on the horizontal axis.

Hi all,

I am not sure why this time/speed element is so much of an issue.

The 1RM test is a test of strength which is the ability to produce maximal
force in a single voluntary action. This in no way is associated with a time
component, if it where it would be a squat jump power test.

The only factors to be assessed in a 1RM test, is do they maintain correct
technique and how much do they lift.

To answer the initial question, I use the ACSM's protocol, which I believe
is similar to the protocol in Baechle & Earle's text.

Hi Giovanni,

Actually I misspoke (mistyped?) and a 1RM is not representative of the Max
Power Expression, as far as peak power. Sorry for the confusion.

However, I still represent that a 1RM is always performed at the fastest
speed safely possible.

John,
Maximum power, according to the articles I have read, takes place at about
1/3 of maximum force. See also the graph
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Muscle_Force_Velocity_relationship.png
Therefore what your are saying implies that 1RM is at about 1/3 of maximum
force. Is that what you mean?

Right, but my point was a 1RM requires force and velocity, but tests neither. It simply tests the 1RM. The parameters are defined by requirements outside of force and velocity.

Hi Giovanni,

Sorry for the delay in response.

Force vs velocity is not relevant to 1RM for any particular exercise. By definition, a 1RM is the maximum weight you can lift for one repetition of the exercise--absolute strength. It is exercise specific.

I think often we get confused with what we are looking at. Keith is 100%
correct that in a "TRUE" 1RM effort we will be applying the greatest muscle
and mechanical force we can to that effort and "speed" will be a by-product
of that effort.

The confusion I speak of is when we begin to combine a specific
"competitive" lift and the rule parameters of that lift, which may include a
speed, or a pause, or some other component that will actually be NOT
representative of a TRUE 1RM effort.

So the take home is that the speed component is an observable by-product of
a 1RM (or any RM) but it is NOT the component that defines the effort as a
1RM.

Good afternoon all, I was wondering if anyone has come across athletes (this one is 17) who after high intensity exercise or competition will either feel sick or are sick? It is really effecting a young swimmer I know and is just not very nice for him. Thank you for any help
