Posted on by

Power & Speed Program In Season
Ashley Jones

2 sessions per week

First Session (usually Monday or Tuesday)

Warm up for 15 minutes with a range of movement drills and gradual increase in speed till you are at around 85% of top speed and are ready to go, say high knees, carioca, marching drills. You know what to do.

Two feet in each
Ickey Shuffle
Backward Ickey Shuffle
Two in and Two out

Assisted work with bungees – have a partner stretch out the cord he has a football, you sprint out with the assistance of the cord and receive a pass on an arc line to his left or right vary it each time, 4 each side.

Flying 30’s – build up over 22m and then hit top pace and hold through to the half way line walk through to the other end and repeat x 4

Weights – 3A + 3B

Second Session (usually Thursday)
Warm up for 15 minutes with a range of movement drills and gradual increase in speed till you are at around 85% of top speed and are ready to go, say high knees, carioca, marching drills. You know what to do.

Hurdles forward warm up series:
2 x March
2 x Skip
2 x Run
Medicine Ball throws and sprint after them, 3 x different weights, light, medium and heavy, overhead throw, forward throw, chest pass throw, 5 times each drill 2 x light (3 – 5kg), 2 x medium (8 – 12kg), 1 x heavy (15 – 20kg)

Weights – 1A + 1B
Resisted (parachute or harness with partner or sled (20kg)) – sprint with resistance for 22mm then release and sprint for 30m with no resistance x 8

Weights – 2A + 2B
Acceleration sprints from different starting positions over 15 – 22m, on chest, on back roll to chest get up, seated facing away, sprint start x 10

Weights – 3A + 3B

Do the power weights program immediately after the sprint sessions, or you can integrate them into the speed session by doing a block (1A + 1B) after a speed drill, so that you are going in and out of the gym, as listed in the example programs. We have had good effect doing this as neural stimulation method.
