Default Re: if you have weights

hey man

What you need to do is get a good strength base first so if you got gym access then do novice weights, if you dont then do body weight.
The reason for this is that when you do weights it makes the long twitch fibers in your legs increas in mass and then once you have made a good strength base you can then start plyo.
plyo will make those long twitch fibers respond faster and helps your brain send signals to your legs to make them respond faster

soooooooooo

weights- increase mass of the fibers, power out put (the power your legs can put out per second), and size of your legs

plyometrics- increase speed your muscles respond at, and also help increase the time it takes to send signals from your brain to your legs


does this make sense??????? i hope so
let me know what you think
