Extensive Tempo using Med Ball

[James_Smith]

Just an idea, could one replace a normal tempo session with say an easy Med Ball throw and run done in between throws using the same parameters as the big circuit or e.g 2x10x100m easy throws + run. This concept was used in the GPP Essentials DVD as a further means to work the whole body, hence my question as to whether this could be used as a means of tempo.

I’ve used this concept, and versions of this, with many of my athletes as a ‘tempo’ training session.

Remember, the importance of ‘tempo’, specifically in a CFTS influenced training system, is the physiological effects.

The actual means by which these effects are realized may vary.
