MattTheSkywalker Pro Bodybuilder (Total posts: 243)	posted February 27, 2000 11:34 PM Yes Sprints are known to increase natural test output a bit - also I do things like box jumps or depth jumps (jumping off of a box and then exploding back up as soon as I hit the ground). It helps to develop the type IIb muscle fibers, and im my experience generally adds power to explosive movements. I don't really know where you were going with your question..... Matt IP: Logged

HARDBALL2 Pro Bodybuilder (Total posts: 213)	posted February 28, 2000 12:06 AM in off-season baseball conditioning, we use a basketball court to do our sprinting regime. as for plyo's, we go down and back jumping with one leg down, and other one back. we also go down and back jumping off of 2 legs...forward down, backwards back...remember to keep feet together. and my favorite one is when we face north in the gym, and jump and turn 180 degrees to backwards, and then jump again to righten ourselves...keep feet together and make sure you cross the lines of the floor with every spin-jump that you make!! hope i helped! GET HUGE AND DROP BOMBS!!!! IP: Logged
Jonrocks Amateur Bodybuilder (Total posts: 57)	posted February 28, 2000 12:15 AM Sprinting will drastically increase your squat. Most people fail during the squat becuase of weak hip flexors. Sprints really hit those muscles thourghly. Sprints also work the leg stabelizers. Sprints alone will add some decent girth to your legs. IP: Logged
Socrates Amateur Bodybuilder (Total posts: 21)	posted February 28, 2000 01:39 AM I am in total agreement with JonRocks, sprinting tends to improve squat and pull lifts. Hatfield, and Chu have written good books on plyometric drills, as well as E.J. "doc" Kreis. Some of the most advanced training you can do is circuits based on all the various forms of strength (limit, explosive, etc.). I went through some the other day with some athelete/coach friends recently, they are brutal. 5 reps X 80% of 1RM (no rest) Pushup position depth jumps 5-10 With friend holding feet walk on hands (20yrds) Medicine ball front throw (while standing push ball from chest towards partner) (rest then repeat circuit) Lots "o" Fun IP: Logged
