I'm really slopping it out to the end of year. Not certain if I have what it takes to make progress anymore.

yeah, you do. and i say that as someone whose progress has been snail-paced. you do. keep grinding.

fwiw back of foot is the standard, front of foot doesn't matter. good on ya for getting to the track. not much to say about the vids except that you are, unsurprisingly, even less explosive than i am and i'm toward the bottom of active posters. looks like you need more power, more strength. you definitely need to change up how you approach working out, you've been doing the same thing forever now and it's not making you all that much faster.

vacation was good, worked out a couple of times in the hotel to nearly complete FIF. i missed a couple of workouts over the course of the four weeks and did not do the priming/pre-test day today that i wanted to, as i spent most of the day (and most of last night) with a nasty headache.

plan for the rest of the week is:

monday
- jumps
- depth jumps
- jump squats
- squats
- upper shit

tuesday
- bw shit, with holds and isos

wednesday
- rest

thursday
- test
- (if testing doesn't go super well) squats

friday
- rest

saturday
- test part 2

weights throughout for low reps, relatively high intensity.

for the one step actually add a full step, like i do in this vid from earlier this year:
