Is max strength important

No, I’m just talking in general. James works with football players, and their strength requirements are much different than sprinters. I don’t actually think there is some universal level of strength for a sprinter. My comments are confined to those that feel the need to improve strength, and how do you go about integrating strength training into an already demanding training program. Furthermore, I think that lifting confined to no more than 70%, especially if lifted in an non-explosive manner, is not the answer to max strength for anyone.
