CFTS for Jumpers

I suppose more extensive bounding could be used in GPP?

In a CFTS model- yes.

@UKcheetah

I’m interested in how much full approach jumping was used in training, only I have never performed full approach jumps in training… always shorter approach or run-throughs…but have heard of it used in other programmes.

I understand your memory is hazy. However, also I’m interested as to the weekly programming in comparison to CFTS, and how many times actual long jumping was used weekly. So was it Speed/tempo/SE/Tempo/Speed/Tempo… so that there is max time between speed sessions a la CFTS? And in that case, would any jumping on the SE day be of a lower intensity/number of steps?

This is where you’ll have to forgive me because I’m unable to remember these details.

Keep in mind this was out door track season of 2005 and between then and now, between PE curriculum, high school football, high school track and field, private coaching, consulting, and my programming here at PITT, I have written a few books worth of training programs.
