I just wondered what you thought of the training that im doing at the moment. I am kind of following a book called "Explosive Power and Strength" from the name of this book you can probably tell what im looking for out of my training. I want to be stronger and faster.
I do a warm up of skipping with a rope for about 10mins then doing some stretching.
Basically I work out 4 times a week in the gym, Day 1 + 3 and 2 + 4 are pretty much the same. I also pair some of my lifts with explosive movments to help speed me up.
The phase of my training at the moment is to get a good base power/strength then i will be moving onto higher sets and lower reps.
Day 1 + 3
Squat 3x8 paired with Depth Jump off 2' 3x8
Bench 3x8 with power drop 3x8
High Pull 3x8 Neider Pass 3x8
Seated Row 3x8
Lat Pull 3x8
Day 2 + 4
Clean 3x8 Medicin ball jumps 3x8
Snatch 3x8 Depth Jump 180 3x8
Push Press 3x8 Incline push up 3x8
Straight Leg Dead 3x8
Leg Extensions
Bicept/Tricep 3x8(supersets)
to explain the pairs for squat for example i do my set them wait my rest time then drop off a height(about 2 foot) and jump as high as i can. So you kind of get the idea what im doing. My work out takes about 1hour and 20mins ish.
I used to have Incline Leg Press between squat and bench i might put it back in, but doing single leg press instead of a double.
What do you think? Any suggestions?
