Better Plyometric Programming

The chaotic good of programming: give someone an exercise, set a time constraint, and say go.

It makes it feel like you're not even working out. You're just out there having fun when it's a fixed time.

Those jumping exercises you perform Will, you make look effortless.

I have been programming timed plyos into my training for a few months as well, it’s so much more efficient in terms of time. 10-15 minutes then I’m off to my main strength work. Not only that, but that 10-15 minutes was more productive than working off a traditional set x rep scheme. Plus at the end up the day it’s just another exposure, another “box” to check off to to speak. Whether I get that through time or set x rep is irrelevant.

This is how I do my dunks. Pick a time limit and adjust based on how I feel. It’s weird because I don’t feel fatigued jumping before lifting and feel more warmed up for lifting but I can see where you could progress faster in the heavy lifting by not doing so much jumping/running

Maybe setting lower and upper bound rep limits so people get enough and/or don’t go nuts?

Been loving this idea on HOSS Concurrent.

Hey Will, do you use the same method to program sprints during the training week?

[facelessnameless]

Do you have any books or programs for sale? I'm a new parkour coach and really appreciate your training insights. I want the best for my athletes and its clear you know what's up

[cheeks]

Warm up by finding max box jump height. Then do sets and reps 🤷‍♂

[henrikb]

I haven't been doing a lot of plyometrics work. Any suggestions for exercise I should be doing?

[gzik]

i usually do box jumps (i actually jump onto plates) in the end to just kill my legs, is it wrong or inefficient?

[AN-fqfl]

and you would stop the set when they get close to fatigue?
