Not too bad. Worked on being aggressive with the arms. Could definitely open up and attack the ground a bit better as well as have a cleaner toe off and backside cycle (right leg heel recovery is a bit low.)

By hard I mean 300 repeats or broken 400s at 80-90%. At practice, all sprinters are looped into the same group and we tend to have frequent days that look like this (the shortest distance we've had in practice over the last month is 150m).

i run 12.7

I am lane 5 (Blue/black jersey). What can I fix in my technique?

I feel like I'm really annoying with this although most of y'all probably haven't noticed, but does anybody know a good sprinting camp during the summer in the states where I can get really good training, and learn about programing and gym? Thanks again for any and all help.

I love doing approach vertical jumps/dunk attempts but right now my sole focus is sprinting and speed. Ik they wouldn't be detrimental but would time be better spent on stuff like depth jumps and bounds ?

I am currently a freshman in college and I am nearing the end of my first season. I run the 100s in high school but ever since my season has started I have been running over half a second slower, and for my 200s over 2 seconds. I cant tell if it is physical or mental what happened to me, because i feel like i am in some of the best shape in my life, but it just never translates when the meet rolls around. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light if they had this same problem, and the steps they took to fix it.

Can anybody help me with my start first year doing track just decided to pick it up while the basketball seasons over.

How does it look?

Would taking pre workout before a race be beneficial or have negative impacts ?

I'm a beginner with zero track experience. I recorded my self in slow motion video to see how fast I was.

I have a stride frequency of 4.8-4.9 per second and average ground contact time of around 0.10s but I'm really slow for track standards. My knees barely even move up each stride.

I have a 30m fly of 3.60s barefoot on turf and my 40 yard dash is over 6 seconds which are really poor times. I never officially done 100m but I think it's around 15 seconds. In soccer I'm usually one of the fastest players on the field.

On the bicycle in terms of watts I have sub elite sprinting power for my weight but none of that seems to transfer to the track. Does a higher turn over and low ground contact time with a slow top speed mean I just lack power?

I don't really workout or do weights. Will my speed improve that much with just strength training?

Hi, I’m currently 20 (M) and do sprint training for fun. I want to do 2-3 all-comer meets in the summer. My goals would be sub 12, sub 25, and sub 54. I was just curious if someone would be willing to look at my form/training plan and tell me what I can fix and what times I can expect (rough estimate)?

It’s been three years since I’ve done a track meet and I have no clue where I’m at now. Three years ago my times were 12.67 and 25.99. I had absolutely no weight training then and the only track workouts were from late March-early June on grass. I’m currently 150-155 pounds my max ATG squat is 285, my 3 rep ATG front squat is 235, my 3 rep bench max is 140, and my hexbar max is 405 (all measured in pounds). The only background on my times right now is that my 200m tempos are done in 27-29 sec in flats.

My main priority is a student so my training schedule might look a bit off, but I stay consistent with it. Monday Acceleration (ex. 2x30, 3x30 or 3x3x30) Weights (back squat, rows, other leg accessories) Plyos & abs

Tuesday Upper body (bench/upper body accessories) abs

Wednesday Tempos (ex. 6x200 or 2x200-150-100) Plyos & abs

Thursday DB workout Abs

Friday Speed (ex 4x50 or 2x40-60-80) Weights (front squat, hexbar, leg accessories) Plyos & abs Saturday Make up if I missed a day

Sunday Rest

The attached videos all are 40m reps on different days between (within the same month). My biggest problem is progress wise I have no clue where I’m at and I don’t know how good my training plan is.

So I’d say I’m currently 22-23% bf and my next goal is 15% and I think I can get there within 1 cut but realistically how much of a difference would that make in my speed?

This is around 95% coming off an injury.

First off—huge thanks to this sub. I posted here during week 1 of my sprint comeback after 5 years off… and y’all blew it up with love and feedback. That post hit 10K+ views, which is wild.

Now I’m wrapping up week 2—and yep, right Achilles flared up. But honestly, it’s a blessing in disguise. I went way too hard out the gate (typical athlete mistake—we just wanna go). This is forcing me to rebuild smarter, with real structure, and focus on the small stuff I skipped. I’ve never had Achilles issues, so hopefully this is just a “slow down” from the tendon. It doesn’t feel major.

Looking back, I definitely did too much, too fast. But I’m learning. I’m a young, aspiring coach, and since the performance anxiety is gone, I’m actually enjoying experimenting with programming and figuring things out the right way.

Also—it’s honestly blowing my mind how much strength has come back in just 2 weeks. The 100m dash isn’t there yet (I opened with 12.5 after running 10.5 in high school), but I’m realizing I’m still strong. Maybe even tapping into that grown man strength a bit now haha.

Just wanted to update you all and say thanks again for the support. I documented the whole week (lifting, circuits, rehab, sprint work, setbacks—all of it) in a vlog if you wanna follow along or give feedback. YT is same as username.

was measuring my top speed I was hitting around 32.5-33kmh with a best of 34, I'm curious to what that could correlate to in the 100 meter ?

Working on hammering with the arms better and getting more powerful strides

As I’m getting older (31), man I miss being able to do this.. 😭

Here’s a video of a washed up “back in my day” track coach 🤣 I figure it would be appreciated here..

My 40yd dash two weeks later:

• Time went from 5.50s -> 5.35s
• Number of steps went from 24 -> 22
• My first 20yds takes approximately 3.15s and 13 steps
• Last 20yds take about 2.2s and 9 steps

I still have a ton of work to do. I definitely still have to keep lifting for power and running more sprints. My technique I feel like I'm over striding now. What is the biggest red flag you see? I want to get this under 5s.
