What are the seven components of power?

• A. Balance, Endurance, Focus, Flexibility, Speed, Strength, Courage
• B. Balance, Endurance, Focus, Flexibility, Speed, Strength, Time
• C. Balance, Endurance, Focus, Flexibility, Speed, Strength, Velocity
• D. Balance, Endurance, Focus, Flexibility, Speed, Strength, Simplicity

Answer: (D)

Power here is a blend of physical capability and mental efficiency. The seven components capture this balance: balance, endurance, focus, flexibility, speed, strength, and simplicity. Simplicity matters because powerful performance comes from clean, efficient action. When movements and decisions are simple, technique stays consistent, energy is conserved, and timing remains reliable even under stress. This reduces wasted motion and cognitive load, so the body can apply force precisely when needed. In other terms, simplicity keeps performance robust across tasks and fatigue, allowing you to maintain powerful output.

Metrics like time or velocity describe results or single aspects of performance rather than the integrated set of attributes that supports power. They don’t inherently promote the reliable, efficient action that simplicity provides, which is why simplicity fits as a foundational component of power.
