N2 - Optimization of athletic performance capabilities is of utmost importance in elite sporting contexts where mere fractions of a second frequently separate success from failure.While it has long been known that human training adaptations exist on a continuum with both high- and low-responders, the concept of training individualization with the aim of optimizing performance augmentations for each individual athlete is a comparatively new conception within the field of sports science.Power, the arithmetic product of force and velocity, is known to be of importance for explosive actions, however, the inherent power potential may be predominantly governed by well-developed force or velocity capabilities and a corresponding deficiency of the contrasting quality.Quantification of the balance (or imbalance) between force and velocity capabilities through force-velocity-power profiling may thus provide unique insights pertaining to performance limitations at the individual athlete level and thus consequently aid in individualized training optimization.
