Yeah this is true, if you pick the right plyos.
Unfortunately, ladders are basically bunk for anything except for warm-up.
If you want to learn to accelerate and change direction, you’d be better off spending your time practising accels and changes of direction. I’d strongly recommend looking up Ryan Heickert, Jason Feariheller and Lee Taft. They’re considered authorities on the topic
Will do. Appreciating the feedback.
I wonder why this got ignored…
A very valid point.
@j4gga2 dude do you mind giving some advice? I am getting confused a bit with tha acceleration training. Would you please recommend 3-4 easy exercise to add as a warm up or super sets in my work outs. I would really appreciate that.
Set cones/marker at 5, 10, 15 and 20m.
Your first drill is bear crawls out to the 10m marker. Do 2-3 sets.
Second drill is pogo hops. Do the first 5 metres with low bounces, the second 5 with medium bounces and the last 5 with high bounces. Keep your ankles, knees and hips as stiff as possible. Do 2-3 sets
Third drill is A-March to the 15m. Focus on staying tall and lifting your arms and legs “up” with every rep. Do 2-3 sets
Fourth drill is A-run. For the first 5m, focus on driving arms to belly button height. For the second 5 metres drive to nipple height. For the last 5m drive to eye level. Focus on staying tall and driving your arms “up” hard. You need to do this making 4 ground strikes per second, so think about doubling the “ahs” is “Stayin’ Alive” by the BeeGees
After that, 2-4 progressive sprints between 50 and 90%.
