I always thought that vertical jumps were more targetted towards MaxV than acceleration ?
My understanding is that most of the training focused on explosive strength (heavy squatting, Olys, DE squats, jumps, plyos) really only impact the early phase of acceleration…start to 30m or so. There is carryover in top speed, but it is the indirect result of the better acceleration. In other words, Max V is not greatly impacted by explosive strength training. The one exception seems to be bounding, which may have some effect on Max V.
