"NO PAINS, NO GAINS."
"If little labour, little are our gains:
Man's fortunes are according to his pains."
Hesperides (1898)
No pain, no gain (or "No gain without pain") is also an exercise motto that came into prominence after 1982 when actress Jane Fonda began to produce a series of aerobics workout videos.
The Professional level athlete community adopted the phrase. It expresses the belief that improvement of the sports performance is the result of training hard and suffering sore muscles repeatedly, implying that those who avoid pain will never reach a professional level as athletes.
No Pain, No Gain should be a past
It is time to change it.
It is time to change quantity to quality because a human body
deserve it:
So, let’s try change it
LESS PAIN, MORE GAIN
and TENDO will help you train effectively

New Partial Average Power with optional range
What is Partial Average Power?
It is the value of average power which is measured from start (0) to a certain predefined value of the range of motion in centimeters. Default setting is 20 centimeters, but with possibility to change the range.
The software calculates power from equation P=F x v (P-power, F-force, v-velocity)
F = m x a, (instantaneous Force F is given by mass m and acceleration a )
for vertical movement F= (m x g) + (m x a) , where m is a mass, g-acceleration of gravity and a-acceleration.
Why Partial AVG Power?
Sometimes average or peak power is not sufficient parameter for assessment of athlete’s qualities in weight training, because many athletes in effort to reach maximal value of power are tried to accelerate weight at the end of movement. This way they reach high average and peak power, but those parameters misrepresenting results. Simply saying, it is too late. Other words they have high average and peak power, but with low RFD - rate of force development.
And Rate of force development (RFD) is a key factor in sports performance,where explosiveness is reqiured.
The Partial Average Power will help emphasize RFD.
