don't how some of these guys can do leg weights during a racing season.
Maybe it's because they're 21, and not thirty-_____.......well, my age


my understanding (limited) is higher reps & lower weight is for 'strength & endurance'....at least thats the part of the program I'm doing when I'm doing weights
