Hi so if your getting ready for a 60 meter competion in 8 weeks would you say 120 to 150 meter sprints once a week with shorter sprints 40 to 60 meter sprints once a week as well on different days. With block starts and some hill sprints. Thanks
If your goal is a 60m race, you don’t need to run farther than 60m. I definitely wouldn’t run 100m or farther, except as a warmup. The 60m dash is unique among sprints in that there is absolutely no endurance component whatsoever. It is completely alactic, like jumping or weightlifting. You should be training like a weightlifter (in terms of programming, not in terms of exercises) - Lots of very short efforts on full rest.
I like the little "oooh!" at the end of Paul's jump. Congrats to him
Also John. Whenever the LJ board mats are ready for purchase please let me know as I’m still interested…
🎊 🎉congratulations to Paul Ogun!
