Asafa talking WR

Asafa is also L-S, and VCB has the same coach as Tyson. Both LOOK significantly stronger than Tyson in the weightroom department.

Maybe if Tyson was to end his season a bit early, take some time off then HIT THE WEIGHTS and get as strong as an ox in the offseason (see Bolt and the problems he had with his back earlier and what Glen Mills did about it), maybe his body could stand up to the rigors of training better.

Thoughts?

Just saw a chat Tyson did today.

He benches 250, squats 400 cleans 225 and said he snatches 225 too. I find the snatch number odd but the others are what we would expect.

Needless to say he has plenty of strength and his strength levels fall in line with most elite sprinters.

He also said he train 5x per week and lifts on Mon, Tues, Thu, Fri.

The reason he had to wait to start true speed work was because of his groin injury.
