Box jumps are a plyometric exercise. Basically any exercise in which your muscles exert a lot of energy in a short interval of time is a plyometric exercise that should improve your power (strength+speed). The only examples that come to mind are variations of jumping, but I'm sure there are some that don't involve the legs?
Thats funny...
Truth is I don't think you have really hit a weight you have needed to grind thru. Your speed is mental really.
Also as an aside (not addressing you bull) I have mostly abandoned speed work. I am pretty much ready to declare it relatively useless for raw lifters. And even more so it's detrimental as the plyometrics are brutal on the joints.
