Timing of Weight Room Session
Is it okay if I do my weight room session the day after a speed workout instead of right after on the same day?
Actively Creation Tension During Acceleration
Yo I just thought of pushing during the acceleration phase in a way I've never thought of before. U see how when you're doing any heavy exercise, for example a bicep curl or a squat, your muscle naturally hardens/flexes/stiffens in order to priduce force because of the resistance. Would this be the same as pushing during acceleration phase, expect the pushing is more intentional. Like if I were to do that same bicep curl or squat with no weight or resistance, my muscles wouldn't just naturally harden/flex under tension because there is none, and ultimately I wouldn't be able to produce force in the movement. Rather, I'd have to intentionally stiffen / harden my muscles in order to produce force in that movement. Would this be the same for pushing during the acceleration phase? This thought just randomly came to mind as I was visualizing a reel I saw a while back where the guy didn't just say punch the ground but used an actual hammer visual for his leg, but this didn't click at the time. I've always heard push down & back, hammer the nail etc. but I think I've been too passive with my legs in order to actually push down and back, punch w/ glute and all those other cues. I'm gonna try this whenever I'm able to sprint and see how it goes

Also a better example than the no-resistance squat or bicep in this case would be any wall isometrics, lets take a non resisted wall sit for example, u can get in the position but unless ur actively thinking about pushing into the ground, stiffening your leg muscles, then u won't actually be putting as much force into the ground. I know this may sound like common sense but it never actually clicked to me

Thanks coach, I'll try to be more agressive with my turnover and try to focus more on pushing down and back. I know the wall drill is supposed to help with this, but what do I focus on while doing the drill (e.g turnover speed, or the action of driving down & back with force, or both) so that it translates to actual acceleration? Also how do I set it up?
