Heavy squats for sprinting performance?

[dittohead84]

Yeah heavy 1/3 and even 1/4 squats are part of a lot of sprinters lifting, not really heavy full squats. A, B and C running drills, hurdle plyometrics and many a fast stride at around 70-80% max speed over 50 yards.

Keep the squats and the light plyos for the same session. The drills and the strides for another session. We don't wanna be straining anything

Check out Litvinov Training. I think Dan John has an article about it. It might be what you're looking for.
