Additionally, there are techniques that are appropriate in developing power in advanced clients and have been shown to be superior to more traditional resistance training techniques (Suchomel, 2017). Selection of these weightlifting techniques for use as an advanced training modality in power production have shown to be effective in clients and should be implemented (Tricoli, V., et al 2005).
