Can you please do a video if shorter people need to train differently for speed in 60m or 100m then taller people? Just like with powerlifting or bodybuilding it matter that you train for your height. I am a shorter person trying to compete in 60m sprint and I feel I need to take bigger steps and lean forward more to catch up with the tall people that run.

[@Ruach360]

Strength training is great as it helps an athlete unlock their potential. I think what some training programs do miss at times is the application of these strength levels. The simple addition of 1-2 plyometric exercises can really make the biggest difference in training. Coach Miller there was a video that you posted a couple of months ago where you spoke about how your athlete surprisingly supplementated a lift with a plyometric exercise. Being is fast is the ability to recruit multiple neurons and fibers and execute at a high level. When we lift weights we provide our body knowledge/stress that it can sustain. When we do plyometrics, we provide our body an avenue for application of this stress. Your youtube channel is helpful and helps push the idea of weight lifting and its relation to athlete performance to that next level.

[@johnnyfox8934]

I'm lying on the track that Noah Lyles ran on in high school watching him run in your video. Your videos have definitely helped me get stronger and faster.

[@MrBalockaye]

Until my ACL reconstruction last year, I was the fastest person anywhere I showed up (football, basketball, rugby). At 6’3 ranging between 215-190, I can contribute very little of my strength training to any fluctuations in my speed, acceleration is definitely something strength training can help.

[@1337b3nnyvav00m]

Most people don’t train the muscle most responsible for increases in top speed which could be part of your issue as well. Your hip flexor strength and flexibility is the most important factor in your top speed. Your hip flexors are responsible for increasing your stride length, and turnover rate which are essential to top speed. Your hamstrings and glutes are the muscles most responsible for acceleration which everybody trains when they train legs, but most athletes neglect their hip strength and mobility when trying to get faster which is a mistake.

[@1337b3nnyvav00m]

Incorporating a few banded hip flexor exercises and/or some static holds will make all the difference. Running intervals as well to increase your sprint endurance. Even world class athletes cannot maintain maximum velocity for more than a few meters. 100m runners reach maximum velocity about 60m into the race and decelerate until they cross the finish line. Incorporating interval training will increase your ability to slow that deceleration once you reach maximum velocity. I don’t know what your training regimen is, so I can’t say whether or not you’ve already incorporated these 2 things outside of your usual strength training and plyometrics, but these are things that I’ve seen help a ton of athletes actually get faster.

[@michaelsadach5401]

A coach in middle school said, a fast persons feet point forward when walking and a slow person's feet point slightly outward. Why is this? When you run your feet, start to go outward as they run.

I agree with you @garagestrength, but to a certain extent. I squat 285, bench 185, clean 200 and have a 34” vertical jump and a 4.5 40yd dash at 5’11 175. The key to athleticism is muscle contraction. I recommend watching the sprint projects video on whats the key to getting faster.

[@TheFitnessPsycho]

[@1337b3nnyvav00m]

Every heavy compound leg exercise should be in a superset with plyos and if you’re not working out your hip flexors you will not get a lot faster.

Love your videos uso, keep up the great work!

[@Eduardolluvioso]

This is the exact program that got my son from 6 months off with a navicular fracture to going to state (Texas 6A) in 7 months. Then off to Oregon where they had him lose 25 pounds in 4 months. 205 to 180, then down to 172 before he came home weak and slow. They killed their power sprinters - him and Hannah Cunliffe. Just started with his 12 year old brother and we will let him have his natural weight and strength.

[@RealRoomy]

whyd he lose 25 pounds..

[@M_R.b]

yall should count how much calories he loses

[@Fluffisnoterm]

I‘m sorry to hear about your older son, that’s horrible. Some people really need that big engine, and it’s a shame that bad coaching caused him to lose speed.

[@theainzleevideos]

Awesome video. Will update with results

[@evanp.deaton7531]

As a college jumper is really about relative strength. If your squat is 300 pounds but you are 200 pounds it doesn’t really matter.

[@ates423]

I’m 200lbs at 6’4, I squat 385. What should I be aiming for?

[@AliMohamed-tr1ii]

In the video he said 1.7 times your body weight , for 5 reps

[@Hajiroku]

But that was what he was saying. Multiples of your own body weight. There wasn’t a set static number since it is supposed to be relative strength

[@ironneverlies1132]

[@m65trackster86]

Would you modify your recommendations for masters athletes (track and field), and if so, how? I am 68 yo male, and struggle with squats due to lower back fragility along with knee pain when doing deep squats. Single-leg squats are currently in my routine. I also think that one needs to work on hip flexors for increased turnover rate.

[@LucasDimoveo]

There are parkour coaches that don’t believe that cleans and snatches are effective for developing power. As I’m not a coach I don’t have a lot of clout to make that argument. Over a year I pushed my clean to 130kg (with a bodyweight of 84kg), and my jump as increased. Note that this is after years of being away from the sport

Great video. I saw another video on KZbin years ago where the head of Nike’s programming said if he can get his athletes to do 3x their bodyweight on a trap bar deadlift that every athlete ran at least a 4.5 40 yard dash. Your thoughts on this?

[@SmokyOle]

3x bw is a lot that's 600 lbs if you are 200. Not saying I don't believe him but I know tons of guys who run 4.5 without deadlifitng anywhere near that heavy.

[@3ddon602]

Hey Dane, thank you so much for your videos, we don’t have a strength coach at our team and these vids are a game changer! One quick question, to make sure I understand it right, for the snatch and clean standards we are talking about a 1 rep max?

[@XudenGroupLLC]

Where can you purchase that wedge?

[@ace6458]

Great info, just had one question... With the Power Clean, would it be more or less beneficial to do a front squat with it, or just clean the weight

[@brandonshoen7957]

Yep, but doing front squat helps with exploding through your heals to get the bar up when you drive that power clean. Yes. Front squats make your power clean better. But doing a front squat after your power clean is just focusing on the form. Some people get too caught up (like myself) on getting the bar up that the form isn’t good and it misses the point. Do front squats with the clean if your form is lacking.

[@youngsuit]

i think the clean and the front squat are the only ones where i can even match my bodyweight, obviously besides the back squat.

[@ALLDAYEVERYDAYKIM]

Yoooooooo I just noticed his Cannibal OX tee ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@blender176]

What if you have facet joint syndrome and can't hold this weight on your back? Do you have alternatives for developing deed and strength?

[@marcusraynal]

I’m 230lbs. Buddy wants me speed squatting 391lbs. I’ll stay slow 🤣🥲

[@nullproof]

For rock climbing, should I start with the power snatch or power clean? In bouldering and some sport climbs, you could be jumping/triple extending while maintaining body tension from a multitude of body positions to reach a hold. Both seem to train general explosiveness, but would there be one that is more applicable to climbing from the start?

[@Advisory_Vessel]

Jumping split squats might be where you want to start. I started training lower body for this exact reason. The amount of people who don't use their legs, feet, and heels is kinda crazy. While you do need great upper body and grip strength for crips, more routes can be done with heel hooks, better lower body tension close to the wall and just out right dyno the problem. Hope that helped.

[@danpolta8759]

Depends on whether you can get the bar into a good front rack. If you can front squat 40kg or 95lbs with a power clean grip for a set of 3 without dropping your elbows, learn the power clean. If you can't, learn the power snatch.

[@rn5697]

Hello there. Would u lake to share with us what's ur calorie intake? 😊

[@MrJoRobb]

While strength is important it IS NOT a predictor of speed. Noah Lyle's is not and never has been very strong. Same for Terrence Laird and many others. There is a freshman kid Azeem Fahmi at Auburn who cant squat his own body weight yet has run 10.09 in the 100m. Same kid consistently runs 6.6s in the 60m. Relative strength and force application are more important than raw strength. Case and point my son is 206lbs squats 560, deadlifts 540 and has a 32in vertical yet has never broken 4.7 in the 40yd dash. Comparatively as a sophomore in high school I weighed 154lbs, squatted 255lbs, power cleaned 205lbs and only had a 28in vertical but still managed to run 4.6s in the 40yd dash. As did 4 other my teammates who were very similar in size and strength. As a senior in high school we had 6 kids on my team who all ran under 4.6 yet none of us squatted more than 305lbs or power cleaned more than 215lbs.

Studies have shown going deeper than 1/4 squat doesn't help sprinters or higher jumping. And deeper increases injury risk.
