Plyo Push-Up Progression (Velocity-Bias Power)
What it does: Trains velocity-bias power in the chest, triceps, shoulders, and back muscles, while engaging the core for stability.
How to do it: Start with the first exercise in the progression below. Even though this might feel easy from a strength-building perspective, the purpose is to train velocity-bias power, and for that, you need to move as fast as possible while maintaining good form. If the resistance is too high, you’ll swing toward strength-bias power, which we’ll target later on. Progress to the next level once you can complete all four sets with a consistent pace and good form.
