>>18574 yeah, fair enough.
ok, limit strength is exactly that. the ultimate limit of your strength, the greatest single mass you are able to move once, depending on a lift. powerlifters use three fundemental lifts to test this. these are good lifts, they are the bench, the squat and the deadlift. these have huge carryover into sports and any physical activity, even using the baroque variants that are allowed in competition. provided you have good general physical preparedness that is.
high end limit strength means you have low end endurance. but don't expect to run a marathon, that is something else entirely.
limit strength does not correlate well to muscle mass. as it is the most efficient use of mass, you generally have less mass. sublime to the ridiculous applies though. ryan kenelly is fucking huge. he can also bench over 1000lbs in a shirt.
so you'd be looking at a powerlifting/olympic lifting training program mixed with sports specific activities if you play sports. you'll have to do supplementary endurance work if you want to be able to run further than 800m; this will probably be hiit stuff rather than long and slow.
powerlifting, google westide.com and david tate, good place to start but not complete. nothing is, different stuff works for different people but it's robust as a motherfucker and you'll learn a fuckton on the articles page.
use it as a place to start and practise your gooogle-fu. learning is the best approach.
