At what point in the series would you say more ki power than muscle power is used when they run? Sorry if this is an odd question. |

Well ki enhances muscles but I know what you mean. Let's see... Probably by the King Piccolo arc. |

I'm curious why you choose that arc. Just a guess? Not that I disagree, just don't have a stance on the matter, wanted some ideas. |

I'd say mostly throughout the series, if the situation has anything to do with combat. They need ki, which takes over when their physical strength hits its limits. Going against a strong opponent or needing to get to a destination quickly would require more ki than physical strength. They can only run and walk so fast using their physical strength alone. It takes them days to run from one side of a planet to another, suppressing their ki reading to almost zero to avoid getting detected. If they weren't in a sneaky situations like that, but still needed to run for whatever reason, I could see them utilizing their ki as much as possible to make the running trip more efficient. |

After thinking aboiut this a bit, I would say they could still be using mostly muscle until the 22nd Budokai, would you agree? |

Ki isn't seperate to mucle movement. Ki is life energy, and without it life can't exist apparently. So Ki is behind EVERYTHING that happens to the body biologically. |

Something like that, yeah. Most of them were in control of their ki at that time, but I don't think they had so much, like in the later arcs where they use it at max for everything they do. I just don't think they were working with much like that back in their days. |

Regarding Goku, up to his training with Popo and Kami, his Ki and Ki control were basically close to zero: only at the 23rd Budokai Ki assumed a big role and, especially only after the training with King Kai Goku's Ki began to have a more important role in his battle power than his pure physical abilities. Here: Power (top) Speed (right) Stamina (bottom) Ki (left) For each graph, the white portion of the quadrilateral represents Goku's abilities pre-training, and the black portion represents his post-training abilities. Also, the graph always shows Goku's normal power, not his Super Saiyan power: Spoiler: click to toggle

I'm not sure I believe that. Genki is the life energy, ki has Genki in it but ki in and of itself isn't life energy. And I don't think it's related to muscle strength, like at all. |

I'd say King Piccolo since, by the 23rd Tournament, everyone could manipulate ki a small bit. And I wouldn't be surprised if Goku or Tien could do it during the Piccolo fight. Though of course, it could be much earlier in the series. Judging from things like the after image technique. Edited by POOHEAD189, Jul 25 2014, 04:42 PM.
