How often should you Sprint?

[@richwood1522]

72 years old, I just love to run wind sprints.

Awesome! So do I, as well as play hockey a couple times a week. But I’m just a kid here at 52, so it’s very inspiring to contemplate having another 25+ years to enjoy it and finally perfect my skills.

Good luck....😊@@jz5005

Sprint time is just as important as frequency; maybe more. Holding a sprint for at least 10 - 15 seconds seems to be the key to the best benefits.

I always wait until the soreness goes away before I do it again.

[@richwood1522]

Same here, have to rest that body.

I stretch the quads and tibialis (shin) muscles and then load them in gym training using bands. It really helps.

2x25 each day , 100yarders, not sore at all. Age 68. Crossing 100 miles of sprints at 1,760 in couple days.

I'm 66 ,workout daily! Include sprints twice a week! Power to the older athletes!

Just started sprinting, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I do interva speed training 3 times a week out of season. 2 days a week in season. Meets on Wednesday. It's important that you understand volume.

I started off 3/week because I needed the reps, but now I do 2/week. The other days I lift+ heavy bag work. I will say I had to greatly reduce intensity and frequency of squats and deadlifts so I had great sprint days. If linear speed is your pursuit, then lower body programming will need adapting-to mostly single leg stuff and focus on power generation and positions

Is that A.J Soprano?

[@NopPlayzStuff]

What if I play basketball 🏀 but wanna do sprints to improve stamina? How many days then??

[@hollowtamashi8722]

Definitely under 3 from what everyone else is saying

[@DominicR-y5d]

Not helpful for sprinters.

Yes, this video was not made for people trying to compete in sprinting. It was made more for people who want to maintain muscular strength and function through their lifespan. Many people stop going fast or trying to run any sprint as they age. This video is an encouragement to do it semi regularly.
