2x5x100

Felt ok. Inbetween sets of the 100 I did some stretches.
just looking over your gpp for this year and its good to see your progressing well! have you just done hills throughout the whole 7 weeks as your high intensity days? also are you going to implement plyos into your program at any point this season?
I did about 4-5 weeks of hills. I stopped because my partner had knee issues. Im gonna start to really hit the plyos starting next week. I definitly feel a miliion times stronger and faster than last year. Im hoping for some big things this year.
your p.b is around 10.3-4 if im right? hopefully shave a good few seconds off that this season ! what plyo’s will you be doing? i think im gonna introduce plyo’s into my training next week also but im unsure of what are the best ones. I have just started with hurdle jumps but really need to bring in some more horizontal jumps as my acceleration phase around 30-40m is really below average!
Well Im also gonna do some hurdle hops. I like doing standing sand pit jumps also. This is were you stand at the end of the pit and broad jump until you are out the pit. I usually take 3 hops to get out. I have been close to two. I also will be doing alot or platform jumps from the floor and
squat jumps, split jumps, bounding maybe (im not good at it), lateral hurdles, and depth jumps. I want get a good amount in this year.
Why so many different jumps?

I also hit the sauna and stretched.
Damn shit load of volume. 375 for 4x4 isn’t bad, you must be squatting mid to high 400’s? I see you are doing a ton of deadlifts.
Im not gonna do all those jumps in one session. I was just giving him some different ideas. I will probably us 5- 6 different jumps. all depends on what I have available.
I see, still don’t see the point in doing that many jumps.
I will adjust the jumps depending on how I feel.
Yea I cant wait to get into the real max strength to see were my squats are. Deadlifts are my favorite excercises. I will probabaly drop them at the beginning of outdoor season.

9/25 Started feelin cold symptoms the day before, but I decided to try to get my workout in.
2x4x60m first set 7.1,6.97,6.91,6.93. Felt bad on each rep. took 6 minutes in-between and couldn’t recover.
second set got worse-7.3,7.2,7.4,7.6 struggled through all of them. Cold was killin my recovery. I decided to forgo the rest of the workout.
After the workout I discovered that we had done the workout wrong. we did all out 60’s instead of 30m hard 30m maintain. Last time I listen to my partner about a workout.
what was the intended work out 4x4x60?
It was 2x4x60 but we were supposed to to hard 30m and maintain 30m. We just went all out on each.
