Mike,
Thanks for the reply. I am new, I love the website, I gather it is yours, I feel like I owe you money.
"Heavy lifting along with other concentric activities…" ??? I.E. Plyo box jumps same day as squats and cleans? Where would loaded box drops fit, since they are eccentric.
Then I follow this day with a speed day? I.E. Speed Dynamics drills, sled starts, and flying 40's with powerchute? With my current volume this smells like overtrainning for me. My greatest strength is also my greatest weakness, I know one intensity level and that level is Max effort with every movement. I see the importance of low volume, but what does low volume mean? I average 175-225 ground contacts per plyo day and my sprint days consist of 45 min. of Kevin's speed dynamic stuff, 8 sled 30's, and 8 flying 40's with chute. When I lift I usually do 3 sets of 8-12 squat pretty much to failure and 4-5 sets of jerks or cleans at 5 reps per set. I just can't make it all fit, it is all I can do to run twice a week and plyo twice a week. Do I need to cut back on the reps or sets inorder to stick some squats and cleans in and do I stick them in at the end of plyo's or sprints or give them a day of their own?
