Power is subjective. If you are an athlete who has feared their own “power” and was always taught more is better, this is for you. I need you to understand that you can achieve higher level skills with less effort and more controlled applied force. Execute the technique, understand where in that execution you can apply force, and stop using the word power as a blanket term describing what’s not working in your skill. Power does not equal speed, and power without control can be dangerous.

Power doesn't always mean "force" or strength. Learn to define power in your teaching and learning! In doing so, you're helping yourself or your athletes gain more control, and expend less energy to achieve greater results!
