The break bewteen spp1 and spp2

Hi charlie, on your speed seminar dvd you map out the spp2 after a competition period. I see that your include maybe 1-3 weeks of gpp before you start the spp2. What would you be doing in this 2nd gpps if you have been following a predominantly short to long programme and are of similar level to you gpp mapped out over 7 weeks in your gpp video.

would u go back to hills and more tempo and componenets highlighted in the gpp video?

It depends on the situation. In our case, we were comming off several months training on a hard surface indoors and needed some recovery on grass in a training camp setting, often following an active recovery week. after a week or two of grass work, we were into SPP2. we sometimes got in a few hill sessions but there wasn’t time for much.
