The synthetic muscle fibers would almost never tear. Under the effects of a hormone stimulation device, the body would release its stored energy without holding anything back.

Add in the cyberware's mechanical energy storage device, and once it all burst into action...

Knocking someone's head off would be the least of it. This thing might even peel the top off a tank.

And unless someone was in a wheelchair, nearly ninety percent of human movements required support from the lower limbs.

To ensure his body could handle the forces in a coordinated way, Jackie also received full skeletal reinforcement implants and reinforced lower-body muscle groups.

Finally, as the biggest member of the team, with the best physical build, he received heavy Subdermal Armor. Its specifications might not match the military product James used, but it was definitely the heaviest, thickest Subdermal Armor Vic could currently get.
