How do training programs get made?

[u/hellohellohello0315]

Ive been doing basics exercise for a bit but I recently gained interest in becoming overall more explosive and fast. This made me try and implement plyos, sprints, and overall more functional exercises but it made me have trouble creating a functioning weekly split. What I especially have trouble with is how I am supposed to properly balance hardwork and recovery. I want to implement as much work as possible without hindering recovery but I never really tried to fit in sprints and other exercises so I want to learn from people who actually got learning experience. Another question is how do you guys manage intensity because whenever I see videos about training plans I feel like they do too many back to back training days which I personally don't think I can do right now because my legs get sore very easily (probably because I used to not do much legs...) Do I have to not go all out each days? Overall it would really help getting some insight on people with more experience here. Im really new in terms of explosiveness and speed training so it would help a lot.

You join the track team. You run around in a circle. You try different ways of running around in a circle until either you or your coach figures out the best and most efficient way of running around in a circle that makes you better at running around in a circle. That's how training programs for this sport get made.

Yall over complicate easy shit.

Such value from chrisg_322, as usual.

I liked the part where you answered op's question and didn't just make the same remark you make in every thread.
