on the field you're not doing 30 reps you're doing one rep and then it'll be later you're going to do another rep so uh your conditioning for a fast fibers can be structured in the same manner

So, if you take a weight that you could do um maximum eight, like you'd fail somewhere between seven and eight repetitions, you take the the weight, maybe even add a little bit, and you just do three repetitions, you don't go to failure, but you do many more sets.
take a a weight that you can maybe do six or seven, maybe eight reps with and do three repetitions, set it down and just do many more sets of rest a long period of time if you have time to do that. That really like that really work those fast twitch motor units.
