My 2 favourite sprint coaches! I follow you both and it really has helped my sprint journey. At 48..the less is more concept has really helped my soreness and recovery. I plan on sprinting for a long time and am keeping health /lab metrics to quantify the effect of sprinting on aging /chronic disease. Thus far it is fountain of youth!. Off to do session #2 for week. Thank you for simplifying sprinting-it really works for us non-athletes who want to stay strong and explosive as we age.!

I agree, I’m 39 and sprint 1-2x per week while also playing tennis 1-2x per week. I recently got the Lila exogen sleeves and they’re amazing

Thank you again for just keeping it simple. Even at my age 66, I still want to improve my sprinting that I never did in the past as I wasn't sprinting in the way that wanted, but now since changing from my previous world of traditional weight training to FP, sprinting has been my measurement for my aging in moment. You are spot on when I saw a video about gym workouts there isn't anything that is beneficial for sprinting, I totally agree with you. All your words are so true and I wished that many more coaches who are teaching Sprinting would just spend time out to listen your wise and knowledgeable words. Thank you again..

I have same path as you. I was mostly lifting and missed my old days when I would run sprint jump. The more I sprint the more I had to lower the lifting and focus accessory work to help my sprint. And as coach said-if you want to be better at sprints..just do more sprints!..I started march 2020 whne gyms were closed and I been on 2-3/week every week since then. Keep exploding! I really hope when I get to 66 I am still doing this..like you

I was trying to work out why I like this stuff so much and it dawned on me most sprint content I see is from people in the business of coaching athletes from 10.5 to 9.9, when 99% of athletes just want to go from 13 to 11. Its super accessible ❤

Thanks Tony for being open to discussions like these. Great talk. “Mostly Standing Around”. That’s the key. Believing in the process, less is more, patience is confidence. Don’t put kids in a box, especially high school athletes who don’t come to you as finished products, but opportunities to get better.

Most coaches, sprinters, parents etc suffer from complexity bias. If it ain't complex it is not the best. Well, we've seen from strength training that just 1 set a week till failure gives basically the same results as very complex training programs e.g. "5 sets of 8 reps @75 1rm with dropset at rpe 9". Even endurance programs are still complex e.g. "do 2 sets of 4 reps of 400m at 80% with a dribble pause", and that kind of stuff, while you just have to follow the 80/20 intensity principle, that's it. In sprint i set all my pb's with no training, just competing every week (meaning one or two all out sprints), when i trained i was always overtrained.

I do like the run like Carl idea. But if the kid has a body that is more like Asafa, Maurice, Yohan, do instead say run like him. Or for the one simple example do you still say ‘run like Carl?’
@coachtonyholler10 ай бұрын
When teaching a group of teenagers as a high school track coach, you typically don’t see many Assfas, Maurices, or Yohans. Therefore, you teach to a general template of sprint mechanics… thus Carl Lewis. Having said that, my sprinters look similar but NEVER THE SAME.

Coach, what do you recommend to a 40+ yr old Sport enthusiast for training? I play Padel Tenis 4-5 days a week and hit the gym 2x a week (heavy lifting - low volume), but never train for speed, and my body aches most of the time. Any programs in your webpage you recommend? Thanks for the incredible content!!!

Thanks! I’ll get to your website and start working on that program. Do you recommend diching the weight room? For me it’s 2 workouts a week, key lifts (Deadlift, Bulgarian split squats, weighted pull-ups, Incline push, and Shoulder Press) once a week ver low volume lots of rest. Doesn’t get me sore, but I do tend to get sore joints from sports. Will the speed training help in this regard?

Hope you watched the whole thing as they was a very good point to it all. It was more about "nerdy" non-athletic-looking "white" guys that were very fast anyway so it wasn't about race really but how they ran races you get me?
