Relative Strength

Definition of Relative Strength: Strength relative to bodyweight

Calculation of Coefficient: Weight lifted for a specific exercise divided by bodyweight.

Examples:

300 lb (Squat) / 185 lb (male) = 1.62 Coefficient

300 lb (Squat) / 250 lb (male) = 1.20 Coefficient

TALK ABOUT BALANCE!

Shaolin Masters and students on kung fu poles demonstrate stances. The kung fu poles are sometimes bound with rope to improve grip during exercises. Practicing on the kung fu poles helps to improve agility and balance for experienced kung fu students. The less experienced might practice on stones or logs rather than the kung fu poles. Leaping from the top of one of the kung fu poles to the top of another demands skill and exceptional balance control.

Today, we use wobble boards, foam pads, bosu platforms, strap lines, swiss balls, balance beams or foam rollers.
