Block Periodization for Power: How Advanced Lifters Can Sequence Plyometrics, Ballistics, and Olympic Lifts
Advanced lifters can break power plateaus using block periodization, focusing on building foundational strength in an Accumulation block and then converting it to explosive power in a Transmutation block. Exercise selection should align with the force-velocity curve, prioritizing heavy lifts for force and plyometrics/ballistics for velocity.
