Consider imposing higher forces upon your clients so they reflexively produce higher force production – Demand = supply.

Readings: In addition to generating force and producing or absorbing energy, muscles also play important intrinsic, self-stabilizing roles during movement due to their force–velocity, force–length, and viscoelastic properties (Loeb et al. 1999; Richardson et al. 2005; Lappin et al. 2006). For example, when subjected to a higher force, the force output of skeletal muscle increases automatically to resist the imposed load. Similarly, if a muscle is suddenly unloaded, its rate of shortening increases and its force production decreases (e.g., Rassier and Herzog 2004). This self-stabilizing behavior results from the inverse force-velocity relationship exhibited by all striated muscles, as was first described by A. V. Hill (1938).
