Not every training stress is created equal. Some are very neurally demanding, some lean more metabolic, some are just lower intensity by design.
This chart is simply a framework for how I tend to view and organize them. It’s not 100% universal…acceleration, for example,

can lean medium if we’re talking about short reps, or shift toward high when the reps get longer.
The same goes for things like med ball throws, which can trend higher depending on extensive vs intensive. Even COD and agility can vary…reactive, high intent work is very

taxing, but a tempi multidirectional work isn’t as demanding.
The point isn’t to obsess over perfect classification, but to recognize the relative demands each method places on the body so you can program them intelligently.
That’s exactly what I break down in Speed Kills,

That’s exactly what I break down in Speed Kills,
not just what to do, but how to organize it, sequence it, and make sure the right qualities are being developed at the right time.
