Force-velocity: how does the speed of the movement change with the load?

Answer:

The Force vs Speed F-V, relationship assumes that at a given velocity, the muscles (load) are generating the maximum force possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, as the external load (i.e. mass) increases, the maximal velocity that such load achieves decreases. The load-velocity relationship assumes that the movement velocity is the maximum possible for the given load.
