eAbsolute strength is the maximum force you can exert with your muscles. Training absolute strength improves speed both in the aspect of running and in the aspect of moving limbs. The greater your absolute strength is the greater your speed and explosiveness. Absolute strength is developed through heavy weight training. This involves using 80-85 percent of your one repetition max. There are three areas of training used to build absolute strength. These three areas are concentric strength, eccentric strength, and static strength.
Concentric strength is your one repetition max for a movement. Eccentric strength is your one repetition max for lowering a weight rather than lifting it. Static strength is the maximum holding strength in a given position. All three areas need to be worked in order to build absolute strength. You need to balance them out and maintain a stable balance.
There are many beneficial things like supplements, hypnosis and therapeutic techniques to help increase absolute strength. Any of these things are fine to use as long as you don't cross into anabolic steroids. Serious athletes or bodybuilders should look into these things but make sure to stay away from steroids.
