Original Link: http://www.iaaf.org/news/kind=309/newsid=4666.htmlQuoteThere is only little time available for the sprinter to develop force during the stance phase. The stance phase where the foot is on the ground is only 0.08 s - 0.09 s long in the phase of maximum velocity.
It's about .087 seconds.
When I had my back problem I think I stayed about one month away from lifting. Didn't lose anything at all. I also had a period of no squatting when I had my knee thing, for about 3 months, and didn't lose anything as well.
Do u mean u didn't lose anything from your jumping results, or nothing from your squat/lifting maxes, or both?? Because this might be the program I've been looking for.

Bodyweight@session : ~188 ,,
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none
10 mins dynamic warmup
ME jumps :
1x4 SVJs : max 29''
1x4 dropsteps : max 31''
3x4 RVJs : max 33''
-WTF , sick!!! I was extremely bouncy, felt so light and springy. Totally different jumping mechanics out of nowhere. I tended to want fast runups naturally , best jumps were off 4 steps ( haven't done such for like... 2 years??? )
I couldn't even time my rim touches correct because of the difference.
No caffeine , bad surface , bad light , haven't jumped truly ME for 3 weeks or more and i got those jumps , insane.
ATG PISTOL SQUATS:
4x8@BW
-Right leg needs some assistance at the bottom , left flies up.
SINGLE LEG CALVE RAISES ( 1:2:1 ):
3x20@BW
WTF is goin on here?? All my gym numbers are about the same as yours including height/wt/squat/ratios, etc and my jumps are about 10in lower than yours!!! How is this possible? What's the secret ingredient??
Hahahaha!
No clue. I can power snatch bodyweight like it was an empty bar though. That counts for something, right?
Where do you need the flexibility? Glute med?
knees, lol!What I hate about stretching stuff is that it takes decades to do. Millions of years to do millions of stretching so it gets annoying and I ditch it.
then don't do the equivalents of triceps extension or biceps curls. do squats, deadlifts and presses instead
Just thought I would post this.
Crazy.
From NYT:QuotePhelps trained six consecutive years over one period without taking a single day off
ya of course intense training over such a long period can shorten your athletic lifespan, but, in regards to burnout, alot of it is just mental.. i mean when you are so successful, winning so many gold medals/championships etc, it's hard to maintain that drive you had prior to winning - i imagine.. takes a very special athlete to keep winning, year after year, and approaching the game/event with the same intensity as they did when they were "hungry" and thirsting for respect/becoming a champion..
federer and jordan come to mind.. even though they had their setbacks/obstacles, their drive to win every single time they go out, puts them on that next level..
if you want to become great at basketball, you practice every day.. if you want to achieve peak potential at distance running, you run every day.. if you want to become great at producing force, you practice it every day in some form or another. Sure you can utilize less frequent strength training ideologies but, at some point, in order to take that next step, you'll have to dabble in the high frequency realm, it separates the men from the boys.
