26 Power Power indicates the rate at which a moment is rotated Power = Moment x Angular Velocity Power = Force x Distance x Angular Velocity [W]

27 Generated power > 0 Momentum and movement are in the same direction Flex-extension velocity increases Muscle concentric contraction (the contracting muscle shortens under tension) Absorbed power < 0 Momentum and movement are not in the same direction Flex-extension velocity decreases Muscle eccentric contraction (the contracting muscle lengthens under tension)
