Speed & Agility

In a world where weightlifting is the predominant type of exercise, some physical properties of the human musculature are often ignored.  This leads many trainees to become well-defined, sometimes even big, and also, quite strong on compound exercises.  However, the sole focus on strength, strength endurance & muscle growth, may leave you quite functional in some aspects.  This is why you should introduce training activities that stimulate the development of other physical qualities as well unless you are a competitive athlete who needs to develop just a couple of physical skills.  In doing so, you will be able to attain a better-looking, more functional body, capable of a lot more than just pushing, pulling, and squatting heavyweights.  This short guide will give you insight into the main physical properties of human musculature and more specifically, insight into how to develop speed and agility.
