12 inches per foot...........






So 25 inches.

You can vary your rest period between sets to target size/strength. Less rest = more size, more rest = more strength.

Do you work any other muscle that much?

You are doing it wrong. Follow the chalk suggestion, and make sure it is a standing vertical not a running start.

I do two times a week 5x5 full body, on Tuesday and Saturday. Sprinting on Monday and Thursday. Used to sprint Mon, Thu, and Fri but it was too much.

It's the difference between sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar hypertrophy.

So you'd rather have a guy who runs a 4.4 forty and a 6.8 in the shuttle as opposed to someone who runs a 4.8 40 and a 4.3 in the shuttle?

40 Speed is great, but it isn't the end all be all of...

Holy ****ing **** can you start any more threads about fast twitch muscles? Couldn't you have just asked this in one of the other forty eight threads about fast twitch muscles that you started?

For me when my bench plateaus I do some more overhead work, seems to kick it into gear for me, don't know about anyone else though.

Jump squats, depth drops, box jumps, etc etc etc.

Heavy weight low reps will work your Type IIa fast twitch, but not your type IIb fast twitch fibers. YOu have to do some speed work to hit those.

It's not REPS that build fast twitch muscle fiber.

If the weight and speed at which you are doing can be done by your Type IIa fibers, without calling in the type IIb fibers, you won't get any...

I normally mix it up. I will do one set wide grip, one normal, and one close grip.

5'10 is fine, I have seen safeties at anywhere from 5'8 to 6'5.

Spam. Report it.

Were you being timed in the 40 with the coach using a stop watch? If so that can explain your reduction in 40 time.

You probably weren't an actual 4.6 to start with anyway. There is too much...

That was my whole point. Hand timed sprint times are bull****.

I have run a 3.3 40 yd dash before. But it's because the person timing me stopped the watch too early.

Wow real tough guys there. Sometimes I wish some of these punk ass teens would try some of that **** on me. I'd rip the video camera out of their hands myself and host that **** so everyone could...
