Plyometric Lifting

I saw this post on here a few days ago talking about lifting heavy weights at fast speeds. It seemed to make sense as far as wanting to get more explosive in lifts, but I wanted some more insight. I've established a good routine idea, pretty much what the anon said was doing a basic 5x5 routine but with lesser weights and at faster speeds with less recovery time in between sets. I tested it out and it seemed alright, but I'm gonna try this out instead:

-4x3, 1x1 @ 90% with 10 second rests in between and doing a isometric pause on the last set (the 1x1) Pretty much just 5 seconds in 3 different positions.

Plyometrics seem pretty based as far as power training goes, so I want to see how experimenting with triples goes with them. Probably snap city.

    >slow eccentric
    >pause for at least 1 second; 3 seconds instead on various exercises for varying reasons
    >explosive concentric
    >iso-hold in stretched position if it is safe to do so after the last rep

      Sounds good, will try. But I think full range explosivity for the majority of the reps is the goal.

      >Plyometric
      What you posted is fine for developing power but its plyometric

      >pause
      If you want to increase rate of force development, not plyometric

      I tried it like stated as a 5x5 right before my workout and again today, it seemed like I was developing more twitch with my lifts. So instead of slowly trying to pump the weight with control and trying to grind it through, I just dropped to like 65 or 70% of my max and did that. I definitely felt it after in my tendons, very strenuous for something like front squats because of the bar bouncing and choking you each time. But you will get results, I'm just trying to optimize.

    Just do triphasic, which is a proven program, instead a schizopost workout

      triphasic is schizo shit, literally has you doing slow motion squats for 6 weeks, pretty based though

    It only takes like 2 years to get black belt in Judo and the dude is acting like this somehow makes him an authority on something only tangentially related to judo. I don't give a frick about the advice, maybe it works maybe it doesn't, but don't come out swinging your dick like that expecting everybody to accept your end all be all advice because you have a hobby.

      It takes ten years in australia, more than five years in many places in the west, and rarely 3 years. It is only 1-2 years in Japan, stfu

        10 years anywhere outside of Japan or China to reach that status, 100% facts.

        Unless you go an practice other arts and show off your skills to them as well then you can speed run black belts like speed runners on crack playing their favorite game.

    You are supposed to do fast/explosive versions of your exercise immediately after completing a slow-strength set. You can look it up, it produces optimal explosiveness.
    Eg.
    >5 reps of heavy BB rows
    >Superset with fast and explosive BB rows with a lighter weight
    >Rest and repeat.

    >pylometrics memes
    The guy who invented jump training says very clearly in his books MAX STRENGTH FIRST. If you can't even squat 225lb you have no business doing pylometrics because you can't generate *any* force. Max Strength is the SAFER thing to train because fast lifting and jumps are tough on joints.

      Total lies, what about the track & field athletes who never lift a single weight who can break your records?

      "Any Force" is a complete BS advice, because by the fact that you are moving is generating force.

      Mass x Acceleration = Force.

      Tough on joints? Warm up with rotational stretching that's all you need to do, nobody said you have to start from scratch.

    I was on board until he said you should only rest for 15 seconds
    unless you're doing something sports specific it sounds moronic
