Ideas on GPP

geoffsherman · 11-03-2005, 02:00 PM

I am thinking of eveyr so often adding a 5th day to my Westside-based routine where I do a couple of Olympic Lifts with light weights and maybe some more plyo exercises. I don't want to overtrain, but I would think that oing some light weight exercises which hit the whole body would actually serve as pseudo GPP. Thoughts?

What is your split now?

Usually I would have 2-3 days of GPP work in the week. Just basic forward running is good for now, more advanced movements can be done later. Do you have a sled?

No I don't have a sled and I have some bad tendonitis so runnig outside on concrete is out. I was thinking that by doing Olympic Lifts, I could get in my GPP, especially in the winter when it is too cold here in Chicago to do anything. RIght now, I am doing 4 days of lifting a week, 2 upper, 2 lower, 1 ME and 1 RE day each

I don't exactly know if that would work...
