on the back three weeks of 3-1-3 and am gonna try to stretch it to four weeks so ill only have to maintain 1 week before season.
adding conditioning work(300m rus today)

over next three weeks plyo volume will stay same ( i dont do a ton of it anyhow)
volume of major lifts will decrease as intensity increases, same with the sprints,due to the addition of some conditioning work on those speed days
hoping that the slight backoff of volume of explosive sprints(10-20yard) will not affect my explosivness as long as i keep the oly lifts intense right?
maybe some advice out there in juggling this -

7-26 sat

3x300yrd shuttle runs

felt good, trying to get my legs back for next week

im pretty much going to close this link and start a new one detailing the final weeks leading up to football camp. since these upcoming weeks will be pretty different then the preceding ones, i feel like starting a new one because of my incorporation and shift of new training goals.
