Solution
The answer is the third one: muscular power.
Explanation for each option:
Muscular resistance: This refers to the ability of muscles to resist force or withstand tension, not the work performed over time.
Kinetic yield: This term is not commonly used in the context of muscle work or exercise science.
Muscular power: Correct. Muscular power is the amount of work performed by muscles in a given period of time. It involves both strength and speed.
Weight power: This is not a standard term used to describe muscle work or performance.
In summary, muscular power is the correct term for the work performed by muscles over time.
