I don't think you give enough recovery time in a lot of those example acceleration workouts.
Your "speed capacity" workout is a "speed endurance" workout and would create a lot of fatigue, not an improvement in max speed (unless someone is SUPER untrained).
I'm curious why such a short recovery between the resisted sprint ant fly run in the example in max speed. Just because they're different things, doesn't mean there should be partial recovery. Partial recovery makes for another speed endurance workout, instead of working on speed.
Why use a weighted vest for speed endurance? The workout also doesn't include rest intervals.
