A) Describe the difference between strength and power during a squat. Provide a quantitative example that illustrates the difference.
B) During a squat, the weight you have on your shoulders has a certain amount of gravitational potential energy. As you squat down and come to a stop at the bottom of the squat, some of that energy is lost. Where does it go?
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each of the following types of strength measurement: (1) dynamic, (2) free weights, (3) isokinetic, and (4) variable resistance.
