Very strong correlations were found between the PPP and the FMPP (r = 0.904), strong of the FMII with the PPP (r = 0.760) and FMPP (r = 0.776) and weak of the VMPS with FMPP (r = 0.295), FMII (r = 0.256) and PPP (r = 0.336). It can be determined that exist a very strong relationship between the levels of strength and power of the same muscle groups and a strong level in the strength of different muscle groups.} institution = {Universidad de Ciencias Aplicadas y Ambientales}
