from what i understand, power-specific training involves sub-maximal weights (around 70% 1RM), but lifted as fast as possible, always trying to lift it faster the next time. Apparently this teaches your body to recruit more MU's.
A beginner would probably not need to worry about being that specific with their training as any good basic program will yield them gains in size, strength and power.
