I typically use double leg bounds, bounding, tuck jumps, and single leg bounds after speed work. But whatever exercises I use, volume is only 5-20 contacts.
What do you guys think is optimal? If doing 300-350m of speed, and then doing heavy squats after?
When I was in Toronto training with Charlie, at dinner one night I asked Charlie roughly how much plyo volume would be appropriate. Ange responded, “How much energy do you have left after the speed work?” It was such an obvious answer when she said it. If 5-20 feels right for you, then stick with it. Less is more.
I just have my athletes do very low volume, high quality work. I would rather my guys do 3x4 to a 36" box than do multiple foot contacts in lower output range. If the boys look a little shot, I may skip them entirely for the workout.
Inseason 5 total contacts will do the trick. Gpp/Spp when you are doing 500m of speed work, 20 mb throws, and weights you may only have time for 0 reps.
