fridays track day

So Friday we plan to use the ladder for hopping drills, plyo oriented work and do some hill runs. We did an intro and played around with some stuff this past friday and here is what we came up with

Dynamic warm-ups
again various drills to open the hips, create better coordination between muscles and limbs, tighten the body up to minimize ineffiecient movement..i.e loose knees, ankles, arm swing

ladder work
hops, 1 and 2 legged forward and lateral hops of various kinds. i am still learning all the names so bare with on that.

one observation is just how much focus and concentration it takes. i always improve the second set which is good and i can tell i am progressing well in general.

plyos
standing broad jump, load and explode; 4 reps x 2 sets
bounding (50 yards) x 2sets
striders (50 yards) x 2 sets

we could not get into stanfords new stadium so no hills or stairs this week
