I really like Thib's performance and hypertrophy combinations. I was doing a lot of those programs as well as some Zach Evenesh stuff while focusing ons athleticism the last couple years.
Scott, I was actually going to ask you this a little bit ago but this brought it up in my mind. Have you looked into Thib's stuff on Neural Charge Workouts? If not basically they are CNS priming movements that he has people do instead of days off. Supposedly they recharge the CNS as opposed to draining it. He has you do explosive movements for speed with a performance measure being what tells you to stop. Ie if a jump squat you stop the exercise on first set that you don't actually improve performance. So if you jump and on the 3rd set you do not go higher than the 2nd thenyou are done with that movement. I would link up the article he discusses this but I don't remember the rules regarding linking to something on another site.
Anyway he does these to recharge or supercharge the CNS and says these actually stave off overtraining by improving CNS performance. I was wondering if doing something like that on off days might allow for a longer or more intense blasting phase. That or possibly be able to bump up to turbo without it being as hard on the CNS due to the increased frequency.
