Christmas Themed Sprint Training (but just cause it's snowy)

[@Trackoholic]

Glad you were working on the right arm. I struggle a lot with my arm movement too, usually not swinging my arms hard enough.

[@T1_Strong]

Merry Christmas, keep up the great work!

[@hermytools]

Well okay, but was kinda hoping you'd out run a reindeer or two...

[@SimonShawk5]

That would've been so sick

[@thwompchild8474]

It’s actually not necessarily a bad thing having a big arm swing during acceleration. Just once you’re upright you don’t want your arm straight

[@SimonShawk5]

I can get on board with that. Helps to facilitate the slightly longer ground contact times and harder pushes at the start. Mine, however, continues to stay straight 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@GP-qd1yy]

Simon, I’m a speed coach, your doing the right things it takes time and patience to run faster. You will break 48 just give it time 👍🏿.

[@SimonShawk5]

Thanks a lot for the kind words!

[@CMRTUBE]

love this video man!

[@SimonShawk5]

Thank you so much!

[@erinsethos2613]

Merry Christmas!

[@mikes2905]

Merry Christmas 🎄🎅🏿 Love your warm-up drills and shapes they're looking much sharper and your switch drills and running look way better 👍🏿💪🏿 Am super impressed good job 👏🏿

[@JskaAjao]

I also struggle with that arm issue

[@mikehgeo9665]

Me too

[@brightmlg]

1:05 bro the same thing happens with me bro i cant feel it happening at all, but everyone tells me and when i watch videos its straight. ive been practicing some drills for arm swing though and its been improving

Hi, for someone trying to look into competitive sprinting, what is a good enough time to consider trying to compete, have never run track and ran a 57 sec 400m, is that good enough to try an train to compete or how fast do you have to be, to be somewhat competetive in meetings. Great Video yet again!

[@pierredeutschlander6578]

Hey Shawking, What happened to the news you said you would tell us from the last video?😢😅 Keep up the amazing work 💪🎉

[@ashgarg3522]

what sled do you use n how much weight do you put on at your body weight.

[@tonydewaldnicholas8739]

Where did you get your sled from? and how much

[@teddyjones6837]

Glad to see you’ve pulled back on the 75% runs. Not so beneficial for a sprinter. You look stronger and faster.

[@Someone85530]

Your only supposed to do them for couple of weeks they help bulid strength and you get faster because after tapering them out your body feels better

[@danw9773]

How does the photo finish app work? All I see is the logo when opening the app

[@SimonShawk5]

You probably don't have a wifi/data connection. That's what happens if you're not connected

[@Anthony-James-x9t]

Sad to see you want to be just a 100m runner! I know these are a few weeks behind, but I sure as hell hope you're doing A)tempo and/or b) some actual anaerobic development. You're already fast enough to run sub48! you was fast enough last season! Stop wasting time on acceleration development only days etc. You can almost guarantee a tenth quicker in a race situation and also better weather. You're chasing something you really dont need to be spending as much time on as you are.

Almost all Olympic 400 sprinters (43~45 sec) can run a sub 10.5 100m and most of them a sub 10.3 if they trained it for couple weeks. Sub 48 400m sprinters should be able to run a sub 11 100m and sub 22 200m. Otherwise they simply won’t have the speed reserve to go out a 23 or faster easily and still be able to come back a 25. You do need endurance obviously but 400 is still a sprint. You need more speed
