Default Re: speed performance

SIDE LEAPS
Muscles worked: inner and outer quads, glutes, hamstrings, and calves
• With legs together, jump from side to side, high and far enough to clear a basketball. • Squat on the landing and push off hard in the opposite direction for 30 leaps to each side.Increases explosive power.

Build the muscles up in your legs.Keep upper body lean and light.Turn your lower body into a power engine.Big squats,big protien intake.Rest well after.On track training days practice your launch over and over again and from a steady jog propell your self forward as fast as you can,slow down,repeat,slow down.
