I'm still only about halfway through the article. It looks like he's advocating a duty cycle of 10s work/20s rest.
This morning, in a feeble attempt to "groove" some technique changes to my kick I picked up at practice Saturday, I did 8x25 kick (w/ board) AFAP. I'm a pretty miserable kicker, so I was doing them in about 25-27s on a one-minute interval. I noticed that on the third 25 I was starting to tail off around the 15-20yd point, so I took an extra minute after the fourth 25.
If I had read this article first, I might have structured the set differently, only kicking AFAP 12.5yds, then easy (active rest?) to the wall. Then rest maybe 10s and take off again. Does that seem like a reasonable application of this ultra-short technique to my kick set?
