Westside Barbell, 5/3/1, 5thSet, and Juggernaut Training Systems all play a role in the creation of this program. Let me know how you advance using it.
Essentially, force (strength), velocity and speed-strength (power) are the three main characteristics that are present in ballistic movements, and you can train all of them in the weight room.
Acceleration is one of the most important components for building maximum strength. However, you should not confuse acceleration with explosiveness.
From the early stages of my time with the conjugate method, here are the biggest benefits I’ve found.
Understanding this tool for manipulating training intensities is key for athlete programming at every part of pre-season, in-season, post-season and off-season phases.
Several incredible presentations from Paul Comfort, Mike McGuigan, and Bryan Mann led me me to make some key adjustments to the programming of my Metabolic Group.
Trial and error over time has led me to where my programming is today. This has produced a philosophy that includes a different approach to upper and lower body training.
Your athletes are not powerlifters. Programming them as if they are will not lead to stronger, faster competitive performance.
Determining the time to implement velocity-based training hinges on three characteristics of your program and athletes. Give them what they need, when they need it.
Determine what factors matter and measure accordingly. For the clean and jerk, and snatch, this may mean a need to reevaluate the implications of average velocity.
This comprehensive guide to sprint training will give you the drills, dynamic movement patterns, and training tools to improve acceleration and athletic power.

Depending on the position you play, the type and level of fitness that you require may differ.
