Q and As are often limited by the Qs!!
No matter what your intent, things can be left hanging when the Qs move on to the next item. Franno had so much to offer and it’s always the follow up that fleshes out the topic.
Asking Franno to define his program in broad strokes may lead to false conclusions. I am of the opinion, based on what I have been able to understand from a discussion Franno had with a top coach, that the hill accels and grass work are vital to his success and they must be viewed in context with volumes and speeds and must not be directly transferred to another setting- as if it makes no difference if his sprints are on grass in Jamaica or on a track in Scotland.

Sorry, some of this I follow and other parts I don’t :o
the hill accels and grass work are vital to his success
ok

they must be viewed in context with volumes and speeds
ok

and must not be directly transferred to another setting

you mean geographic?

- as if it makes no difference if his sprints are on grass in Jamaica or on a track in Scotland.

Sorry can’t follow this.

Do you mean in Scotland he would still do the same thing but use a track instead of grass?

Or

in Scotland he would still do the same thing using grass despite the grass straucture being very different to Jamaica

Or
something else again?
