Using mini breaks during sets can help maintain quality, force output and power output during training sessions, making it an effective way to develop strength. It is recommended to stick to a repetition range of 30% to 70% of your one repetition maximum to effectively train for power, while being careful about the eccentric portion.

Eccentric overload training is an advanced technique that can be more effective for strength development compared to other methods, as it allows one to load at greater than 100% of their one repetition max and focus on the eccentric portion of the movement.

Summary
Eccentric overload training is an advanced technique that can be more effective for strength development compared to other methods, as it allows one to load at greater than 100% of their one repetition max and focus on the eccentric portion of the movement. However, caution must be taken with the eccentric portion to avoid injury.
