Morrow, James R., Jr.; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1979
In evaluating performance of women's volleyball teams it was found that the quality of physical size as represented by body composition and strength was more important than the combination of height and lean weight. (JD)

Liemohn, Wendell; Pariser, Gina – Health & Fitness Journal, 2002
Presents information to promote understanding of the concept of core strength and stability, explain why this concept is important to spine health, and evaluate trunk training activities with respect to their contribution to core strength and stability, noting implications for physical fitness and low back pain. The paper reviews the anatomy and…

Peer reviewedRhea, Matthew R.; Alvar, Brent A.; Burkett, Lee N.; Ball, Stephen D. – Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2003
Examined the quantitative dose-response relationship for strength development by calculating the magnitude of gains elicited by various levels of training intensity, frequency, and volume; thus clarifying the effort to benefit ratio. A meta-analysis of 140 studies with 1,433 effect sizes (ES) was conducted. ES demonstrated different responses…

Investigated recovery of maximal force and power following a 10-km race. Data collected on 10 healthy male distance runners pre-race, immediately post-race, and 48 hours later indicated that strength and power capabilities of these 10-km runners were for the most part restored 48 hours after the race. Only the hamstring muscle group was not fully…

Peer reviewedNewton, Robert U.; Hakkinen, Keijo; Hakkinen, Arja; McCormick, Matt; Volek, Jeff; Kraemer, William J. – Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2002
Examined the effects of a 10-week, mixed-methods resistance training program on young and older men. Although results confirmed some age-related reductions in muscle strength and power, the older men demonstrated similar capacity to the younger men for increases in muscle strength and power via an appropriate, periodized resistance training…
