al_77's Sprinting Log

[al_77]

Hey guys, track season is coming up, and I've decided to try out sprinting this year. I'll be honest, with my powerful legs, I can sprint pretty fast. But I know I am no where near what I can be and NEED to be, so hopefully throughout this upcoming season I will be able to open up to my full potential.



Training:
Gonna be running WS4SBIII for the pre-season, then a simple in-season template when the season starts. Here is what I plan on doing for the next 5-6 weeks:

Monday: Speed work/Acceleration
Tuesday: ME Upper
Wednesday: Conditioning (Intervals or hills), Normal Plyos
Thursday: ME Lower
Friday: RE Upper
Saturday: Acceleration/Speed Work




Nutrition/Diet/Supplementation:
On a calorie deficit, so I'm looking on getting into very low 180's when the season starts, definite 170's during the season. I take protein, creation, vitamins, and bcaa's. Basic diet, no b.s.


I'm gonna work hard on this, though i'm the underdog this season, I will push it to the limit like always.

u need to search speed dynamics. they really do help, hopefully you have a good coach. I was a state champion 200m dash/long jump in illinois, having a coach that knows how to train you so you peak at the right itme is HUGE.

ps, olympic lifts are the best for sprinters, they make you much more explosive

btw, when I perform conditioning, should I be going all out? little rest and all that

What events do you do and when does your season start?

I plan on doing really short-distances like 100m+200m. It starts rather soon, I actually started training specifically for sprints a little too late. But I thought, might as well start it now.
