Review: Weights for Speed (One and Two)

[AthleticsCoach]

@tamfb

After experimenting and learning from other coaches on this forum, its best to go two high intensity days esp. if the athletes don’t have regular excess to therapy etc. Also when you are working with athletes who are post university athletes who have full time jobs it’s hard having 3 high intensity days. Typical week:

GPP: 3 high int days.

SPP:
Mon: speed
Tue: tempo
Wed: rest
Thur: SE spilt runs
Fri: tempo

• Also we may at times perform a upper body strength session on the tempo days and lower on speed days.

You’re weekly SPP set-up is very similar to what I will have to do next year. Interesting…
