Legs felt good today - all around solid session. I think one of the best decisions I made this block was bumping my sled weight up to 25lbs. I may add another 10lbs. Gonna take it easy over these next couple days leading into my testing day.

I dumped the jumps today and lower the tempo volume slightly. Legs felt really good and I would like to keep them that way over the next week.
lil off topic - my wife did a squat workout yesterday very similar to what I did several months ago and she crushed the volume. It's funny how women can handle so much more volume then men.
Friday:
Jog 5mins

Squat 3x10x65%

No kidding.
I can’t run more than 3 days per week now and do no lower body weights: get unbelievably bad itb problems.
I am. It’s fun. Sparring is fun.
I’ve been doing a little sprinting with my son.

I notice whenever I take a long hot shower follow by 10-15mins of stretching before bed my legs feel great the next day. I was amber this morning but legs feel good - hopefully things go well over the next several days.

I worked out around noon today instead of late evening because I wanted to be home for the baseball games. Overall the session was very avg - slight headwind for most of the runs. All jumps were worst then last testing session and a very small improvement on the sprints (.03). The one positive from today is the touchpad worked great and help solved some of the issues at the start. I'm not concerned with the times but the execution of the runs was kinda disappointing..
At this time I need more high quality fast sprinting in an adequately recovered and ready state (9-10), with the goal of improving on each session while using my electronic timing device for each session.
The plan for the final month of gpp will be 4 days a week of training.
Mon: Timed contrast runs 30-50m, jumps, throws, lb wts
Tue: Tempo 100s or bike tempo, ub wts
Thur: Timed runs 30-50m, jumps, throws, lb wts
Fri: Tempo 200s, ub wts
I'll see how my body responds to the training over this next month - if I feel more rest is needed when the sprints get longer/faster and jumps get more intense with depth jumps etc I'll decrease training even more....
