Being strong does not necessarily mean that you produce strength effective for your game. You may be strong, but do your shoulder, arm and back muscles contract efficiently to allow you to play the cover drive correctly? That is why, after developing strength, you have to progress to sport-specific speed exercises. These exercises develop Muscle Power in those muscles you use for explosive movements needed for your game. Once basic strength and muscle power is developed through specific fitness programmes, your tendons and joints become stronger and are less prone to injury.
