Elitetrack: Sport Training & Conditioning

i would stop the squat workout, bc u will overtrain - too much running etc. not trying to be an ass but i have done that squat workout many times and know the guy who made the workout and by looking at ur journal you will overtrain soon. i really dont see the point with all the running etc this early in the season.

well im only going to have 2 hi intensity days per week… u think thats too much?

i think im just going to go
monday - lift, run
friday - lift, run

the rest of the day will be for tempo, rest, and an occassional circuit

i did the same squat program last fall with 3 speed days and 2 tempo days also i added another leg day on wed and i still got great gains, as you know everyone is diff i would just play it safe. by the way what are your goals for the summer?

My focus this summer is on speed, squat (leg) strength, hamstring development, and hip flexibility.

how many times through that circuit.

oh my bad
twice… with like 5 min recovery btw because my bro did it too

was those circuits high int or low, if low int while those drills?

thats kool, those drills are more for explosive high int days. there are many other lower int drills u can use for recovery.

the circuits are medium-low intesity and serve as recovery…why those drills? i dunno, thats what we did all year for university..
