+Jaret Campisi man honestly I don't even know haha. But great video I'm a freshman in high school right now and run a 60 second 400m and it's been hard for me to bring it down

The best things you can do is continue to get in better running shape on the track from doing interval training and get as strong as possible in the weight room.

later on in my season this year we did this session: regular warm up, 3 x 60m at about 75%, then a 300m (85%) followed by a 50m (95%) 20 seconds after you finish the 300m, you take a 5 minute break and then do a 250m (85%) followed by a 100m (95%) 20 seconds after you finish the 250m. Highly recommend this as I run 200m and 400m
I've been a sprinter for awhile but never really put in the work, this year's season I put in far more effort and I feel like it payed off, what distance did you come from?
I ran this in my first track meet and...well I don’t even wanna talk about it😂 also did 400m hurdles then a 800m after that and I will NEVER do that shit again
Cequan Walker I had a meet today and ran my 400 in exactly 1 minute. Then I had to go run an 800 (which I’m usually pretty good at) and absolutely bombed it. I wound up throwing up at the end😂
"mechanical efficiency" in running can be trained but only for a bit. The majority of this efficiency will depend on the structure of the tendons in the legs, especially the Achilles's tendon, and so this will depend on genetics. If you have genetically good leg structure, you're already ahead of the curve. Of course you still have to train the aerobic/anaerobic systems too.
+Kalashnikov Cortez Mechanical efficiency can also be improved by reducing wasted effort. E.g - reducing lateral movement whilst running to increase linear movement efficiency. Posture and form through the posterior chain will also help initiate a better strike down on the track under the hips so as to minimize braking forces whilst running. All that being said, athletes like Christoph LeMaitre and Kirani James are still running ragged towards the end of their races.
Great videos bro, as an aspiring young highschool track runner myself i find these very helpful and informational. Half of this stuff you show us my coaches dont even know sadly
+Adrian Carrizosa haha thanks man...and yeah track is a very misunderstood sport. I'd say most athletes and coaches don't know this stuff...these are things I figured out on my own from years of experience or through articles and my coaches at Penn State etc...glad they are helpful. Lots more coming!
I like the way you give instruction . Very Simple and basic . Too often coaches who do these vidoes will try to replicate the more complicated training like the advance world class athletes and not understand and negate the basics . Good video
Martinez Williams thanks I really appreciate that. I actually trained with a few world class athletes and even they always kept the basic principles as part of their routines. I think a lot of people overly complicate things when it isn't needed in order to be a very good athlete. Lots more coming. 👍

+The Mikekid absolutely. Sounds like you've got a solid natural foundation for running. I'd def give it a shot and see how it goes. Thats a pretty solid time for your age.
+Aeneas Mcleod You should try out for track in high school. I run the 800 for Varsity at my school and i have a time of 2.10 but my 400 time is 55. You should consider running track in your high school especially if it is Class B or below.

When people were judging your arm movement I was like “surely he isn’t that bad”. If I ran like you I think my coach would probably either kick me or cry😂 Awesome it works for you but before I got training I ran like you and straight away my coach made sure to get rid of that sort of movement.
Hi Jaret, what is the diference of running decreasing distance and increasing distance Difference between running 300-400-500-400-300 or 500-400-300-400-500
I've been running the 400m to build in endurance. My current PB is 1.18.90. Down from 1.30.62 last week - mind you there is no out all out starts, or any periods of full speed YET. Hoping to reach the 1min mark and then maybe 50. Guessing I can top around 45, I'm not sure. The strat I use is go at half speed on the bend, and speed up a little on both straights, usually the last straight I've just about burned out. Before the last bend, I'm going into burning out. Big improvement from when I started, when I had nothing left at the end of the first straight. Really missing how I was in top running form when I was 16. I'm a natural sprinter, made for 100m but that near 2 decade hiatus knocked me off the mountain(also known as working full time retail). Gonna get back on it, and you're gonna hear about it. These videos inspired me to keep trying.
I just had a track meet yesterday and ran 200 meter dash the way his 200 meter video said to do it and I got 1st in my heat and that was the first 200 meter run I’ve ever ran in my life
+Eric Hemming haha right on man, glad you like it. I've gained lots of knowledge over the years of training and competing at a very high level so I'm happy to give back to a sport that I love so much. Lots more coming!
Hi.Speaking from Japan. I'm Japanese and I'm 17 years old. My 400m time is 52.53 my 800m time is 2.02. I think your videos are easy to understand and your muscle always make me high! あなたのおかげで速く走れそうです!(Thanks to your description I'll be more faster!) これからも見続けますので、よろしくお願いします:)
Hey man! recently started watching your videos and so far loving what I've seen. I'm an 800 runner and was wondering if you had any tips for the 800? and more specifically the last 200 of the race, which is so crucial, and I feel that i need to greatly improve on.
Hey buddy! Glad you're digging the videos. I've run the 800 a few times on 400 meter training and was actually able to put down some decent times (1:53 ish). As for the last 200 meter that's going to be a combination of your strength endurance training and how smart you ran the race. If you don't conserve energy properly you'll have issues finishing the race.
Ok. 2018 spring. It was my first track season. I ran the 400 meter dash. I never ran Track. But then I worked everyday and every night. I ended up placing every meet. I made it to CIC and County. The 400 changed my life and I’m training still for my 400
+Hisham Morsi I will add it to the list...its not an event that is run very often so there aren't a bunch of peeps looking for that specific race. It would be very similar to the 400 with a smaller float phase. If you watch my "how to run a 400" video that would put you on the right track and then you could make adjustments from there based on what works best for you.
I’m an 8th grader, 14 y/o and my pr is 53.5. That’s second in my state for age group and I want to be at 51 or less by the end of next years track season.
+Jaret Campisi When I run the 400m, I usually get like 1:20 but I want my average at 1:15 the last 100m is so hard, I need to be able to run the same speed over their
+Colossus Fitness I actually ran the 800 a few times when they needed me to run on our National 4x8 team in highschool...I believe I split 1:53 ish or something around there...you can still run great 800's off of 400 meter training for sure.
+Jaret Campisi haha shit, I did not enjoy the 800 at all. People always said the 400 hurdles were the worst race in track but I personally thought the 800 was worse...could have just been my training but man I did not like it. haha
+Jaret Campisi hahah I guess because you were a sprinter. That would make sense though! I mainly did 1500 and 3000m so that's why I liked 800 more. I did the 2000m steeple chase for a year and it was death 😂
my track coach said she didn’t figure out how to run the 400 correctly until stated her senior year and she won. Don’t expect yourself to be good the first year of training hard. races, especially this one, take time to figure out because everyone runs them differently
Running as hard as you can the entire time is not how you will run your fastest times in any race. I've got a track and field playlist on my channel so head on over there and check it out for more informational videos
Good tips. I’ve been running track for 8 years now and this helped lots (btw, fix your sprint form; arms should be moving hip to pit and heels shouldn’t be kicking your butt)
My best 400 is a 57 and my best 300 is a 40, how can I work on my final stretch which is where I feel like I struggle the most (these were my pr from my 10th grade year, My 11th grade year season starts in about 2-3 months)
love the video, going to have to suggest to my coach. we do 2 of each run from the 100m to 600m at 75% with about a minute break in between each one then work our way down again..I like the sound of this one better!
+Dorion Cipriani 1 min break seems really short dear god...yeah def give this one a shot. Its a great workout. I'll be posting more in the future so stay tuned!
Hi Jaret, thank u for the video, little question : let's say you're in your Speed Endurance Cycle and u train 5-6 times a week, u can do 500-450-300 etc once or twice I guess, but what would u do the other days ? Fartleck, 120, 150, technique drills... ? Thanks
Oh you just vary the distances and rest times but keep the intensity similar depending on what part of the season you're in...there are millions of workouts you can do just depends what you want to work on. I'll be putting up lots more workouts in the future for you guys so stay tuned.
+Jcoach Zelemi yes I feel much slower at this body weight. I competed in college around 157 lbs and now that I'm 180 I'm not even that much stronger since I've been lifting for size not strength so yea def slower.
The 400m run requires the efficient use of the five energy systems that fuel biochemical/bio-mechanical movement, more commonly called running. We do off season, preseason, mid season, and championship season training based on these energy systems. The only heavy volume running is done in the off season and this is done for only two weeks. By preseason my runners never run farther than 350 meters during a practice session. With this method I have brought 16 and 17 year old boys down from 51 secs to 47 and 48 seconds in one season. This year I had a 13 year girl run a 56.32 400m. When she came to me 4 years ago she ran the 400 in 1.07:5. Another 13 year girl last year ran 1.07. This year she ran 1.00.03. Fast 200m times are needed to run a fast 400m in general, although some 800m runners with good foot speed can also do well in the 400m event.
I also run the 200. For me, I've always just completely sprinted it. I build up to my fastest speed within the first 80 meters and then level out. The 400 however is different.
I am in my first year in college and I am currently not on the track team. Ive ran track my junior and senior years in hs and my PR in the 400 was 50.32 but in the 4x4 (1st leg) i ran between 48.6 and 49.2 ish (big difference sorry lol). Do you think its worth it for me to give it a chance at walking on at D1 school or should I just work on experience at a D2 or so?
Ovalle_22 its a lil late for this cuz most colleges have closed their admissions but it depends on the program. email coaches and they can tell you what their program gives. some D2 schools are better than D1 schools
The complete 400 meter sprinter has to train above the distance (800m), race distance (400) and below distance (200), never neglect speed in any part of the training year.
I was told my arm movement is incorrect ever since I started running, and for the most part you are correct. However, that is what feels most comfortable to me and I was able to compete at a very high level in track so you don't always have to have "perfect" running form to do well :)
Can you please discuss why are you resting for 5 minutes? I'm a 400m runner - that is my main event and when I do those strength and endurance workouts i usually rest not more than 3 minutes and its like 3 x 300 or 5 x 200. Every comment is appreciated I love advices you are giving away. Thanks
The way your running these reps are at a tempo pace. Yes the workout your doing is good speed endurance for 400s if your running these close to 100% Seriously if you want to set an example. Set the example not look like your jogging it Your body build is more a 100&200 And lastly what the fuck are those arms doing Source: I ran 400s
I’m a Junior in High School and in my sophomore year, I ran a 1:05 for the 400m and a 31.10 for the 200m but this year I hit 28.40 in practice and I was wondering if it was realistic to approach 26-27 for the 200m and 58-59 in the 400m (Also I know I’m ass, but I just started doing track as a 10th grader, so I’m very inexperienced with this stuff)
I've been doing a ton of off season workouts on my channel. Just check out the track playlist. I also have a Run Faster Off season program available here: www.jcampfit.com/store/p29/run_faster_-_off_season_track_program.html
im a 400 m. (58.72 inside) sprinter im 14 years old and in my country (lithuania) theres not too much competition on 400 atleast. so this summer im willing to get a medal in national championships so im gonna try your training routine for it. Ty for the information.
+dofke121 haha yeah buddy! Congrats! Its amazing what you can do with correct training and understanding of the sport. Keep up the good work, lots more videos to come.
+Justin DeSalvo track def helped build my physique and give me the lean athletic look...but as for building size and round muscles thats the weight lifting. I like to have a combination of both so I look athletic and kinda greek godish. Drives the ladies nuts :)
I've got a bunch of videos in the track and field playlist on my channel. I also have a run faster program available here that would be perfect for you. www.jcampfit.com/store/p29/run_faster_-_off_season_track_program.html
I'm 13, and I run a: 100m: 13.5 400m: 1:18 1600m: 7:03 Just got into running, no training, and no workout. Can anyone suggest any workouts/training to get my times lower?
Victor Lim working on technique is the most important part of running . What i usually do during the week is do b-skips , high knees , a-skips , running b-skips and butt kicks for 20 meters than sprint out pumping your arms . Make sure to do them almost everyday so your body can get used to doing those drills . Everynight focus on your core because you cant run without a core so do around 200 situps or untill it burns and 6-inch leg lifts for 2 minutes . And for running the 400-800 i do three 300s , five 150’s and 4 50 meter sprints . And i promise youll get them times down . I ran a 56 last year in the 400 and right now im sitting at a 51.8 and my pr for the 200 is 21.9 . Good luck
400 runner here, good work out and tips but honestly your running technique is really bad, you barely move your arms, you also have long legs but your stride sucks
haha yeah i've been training for body building the past 2 years so I've put on over 20 lbs and haven't been running as much so my form as definitely suffered. I make these videos to share my knowledge and to help others so hopefully you can look past my less than perfect form :)
I have time trials on Wednesday and I have always wanted to be the best I can possibly be. I never felt like I was trying hard enough in previous years and decided to actually train and work my butt off. I have ran in relays (200m and once 400m) I actually used to come in first in my elementary years but now I'm in middle school and feel like trash. I'm gonna go and practice on Tuesday after track , then take an ice bath and get as much rest as possible lmao so I'm not really sore. I'm gonna try the 100m, 200m, and 400m just to get all my times in. I'm also going to apply your techniques to all my races. Hopefully i can practice and remember some techniques and if I do get in a relay or even better then that a 100m, 200m, or 400m race, then I can have more time to practice those techniques and be even better at them when the track meet starts. I'll probably post an update to this comment and see how this goes. I'm hoping to be a little better then before but I,m gonna try my absolute hardest.
Hey coach, I'm a freshman at Millbrook high school going on to sophomore year and my best 400 time was 57.94 but this year was my first year running the 400 just wanted to know if that's a good time for my grade level And if that's a good time overall . And I also run the 200 my fastest time was 24.84 this year
Gerald brown Texas is different. More athletes, better schools, better coaches, more funding, more track programs for kids, etc. I knew a kid who moved to Texas his sophomore year who did the 800m and 1600m. His PR that year was 2:09 and 4:52. When he moved to Texas his junior year he got down to 1:59 and 4:33, then 1:55 and 4:24 his senior season. That's a heck of a work ethic to be able to be able to excel like that.
For that work out you should try and hit 400m "55-57" 300m "38-40" 200m "23-28" that what I do and dropped from 50.55 to 47.34 and during season do a lot a 250,200,150 and starts better start u got quicker ya time gonna be
Oof. I remember getting that in the beginning of the season. After practicing like Jared, My PB is now 1:04.37s. I didn’t think it would have worked but it did
I ran a 400 yesterday in 1:25.3, and last Monday I ran a 400 in 1:28.6, so I did better yesterday, even though on Monday I almost won first place (even though i went against only my team members instead of the two schools we were against) except I lost feeling in my legs from how cold it was 😶😶😶
Hey RUclips, I’m 13 years old and in seventh grade and I play soccer. I just ran a 400 with a time of 1:00. Should I consider running track? (I haven’t had any running training other than playing soccer)
I did a 58.0 in 7th grade. All I said was... I’m good if I slow down less than anyone else. It’s not like u sprint the whole thing. U need to be smart. Such as. Follow the lead runner till the end of the first 100m and then find ur speed in the first 100 stretch . And start speeding up along the bend and use the rest u have for the end of the race. Atleast it works for me. (I was top 3 top 2 in the colonial conference.so it may be different for u guys.)
Bro I ran the 400 for the first time in 7th grade that was also my first year of doing track ever and man I didn’t like it when I finished the 400. My time was 59.34. Yep high school is gonna be so fun 😭. Rip my legs also I need to work on my form and this video is helping a lot. People would always say that my arms look stiff when I run sometimes.
I’m in 8th grade and one of my friends on the tennis team just placed 2nd in the nation for the 8th grade 400m time (52.9, with the first in the nation getting a time of 52.7 and he also happens to go to my school). I want to catch up to him (I do realize that will be quite hard right now) so I’m starting to look at more videos about sprints. I usually work on distance (I do the mile run and also do cross country) and luckily I have one of the fastest times in the school but sprint wise I am definitely not doing any of those despite making the team. Hopefully I can begin to go faster but I am definitely not doing track in high school though.

true

+Aeneas Mcleod You should try out for track in high school. I run the 800 for Varsity at my school and i have a time of 2.10 but my 400 time is 55. You should consider running track in your high school especially if it is Class B or below.

I ran 58 seconds in 8th grade then I stopped running track. I now run around 1.05 and I'm in Junior year. I hope I get better!
When people were judging your arm movement I was like “surely he isn’t that bad”.
If I ran like you I think my coach would probably either kick me or cry😂
Awesome it works for you but before I got training I ran like you and straight away my coach made sure to get rid of that sort of movement.
I am going to run 600 meters
Wish me luck

Hi Jaret, what is the diference of running decreasing distance and increasing distance
Difference between running 300-400-500-400-300 or 500-400-300-400-500
there isn't much of a difference really
I've been running the 400m to build in endurance.
My current PB is 1.18.90. Down from 1.30.62 last week - mind you there is no out all out starts, or any periods of full speed YET. Hoping to reach the 1min mark and then maybe 50. Guessing I can top around 45, I'm not sure. The strat I use is go at half speed on the bend, and speed up a little on both straights, usually the last straight I've just about burned out. Before the last bend, I'm going into burning out. Big improvement from when I started, when I had nothing left at the end of the first straight. Really missing how I was in top running form when I was 16. I'm a natural sprinter, made for 100m but that near 2 decade hiatus knocked me off the mountain(also known as working full time retail). Gonna get back on it, and you're gonna hear about it. These videos inspired me to keep trying.
Thanks for the 5 minute intro to explain what you're doing
I just had a track meet yesterday and ran 200 meter dash the way his 200 meter video said to do it and I got 1st in my heat and that was the first 200 meter run I’ve ever ran in my life
What was ur time
Loving the info on the 400 your giving us man! Keep it coming fosho haha
+Eric Hemming haha right on man, glad you like it. I've gained lots of knowledge over the years of training and competing at a very high level so I'm happy to give back to a sport that I love so much. Lots more coming!
Hi.Speaking from Japan.
I'm Japanese and I'm 17 years old.
My 400m time is 52.53 my 800m time is 2.02.
I think your videos are easy to understand and your muscle always make me high!
あなたのおかげで速く走れそうです!(Thanks to your description I'll be more faster!)
これからも見続けますので、よろしくお願いします:)
Hey man! recently started watching your videos and so far loving what I've seen.
I'm an 800 runner and was wondering if you had any tips for the 800?
and more specifically the last 200 of the race, which is so crucial, and I feel that i need to greatly improve on.
Hey buddy! Glad you're digging the videos. I've run the 800 a few times on 400 meter training and was actually able to put down some decent times (1:53 ish). As for the last 200 meter that's going to be a combination of your strength endurance training and how smart you ran the race. If you don't conserve energy properly you'll have issues finishing the race.
Thanks! Appreciate it :)
I was here a year ago trying to break my pr of 1:08, I did, now I’m back trying to break 58 and get 56 lol. I’ve put so much work in
Hey I'm 6.9 years old and run the 400m in 41 seconds with no training. Is that good?
No
caffeineaddict yea you should quit that's terrible
caffeineaddict lies🙄
Matthew Pueschner the fastest time ever is like 40 seconds
caffeineaddict ummm ya that's a decent time, but once you get to that 4.20 time, you know you'll be good
I really enjoy your videos! Who's here watching these in 2020? 😀👍
I have been working on it and improved
Ok. 2018 spring. It was my first track season. I ran the 400 meter dash. I never ran Track. But then I worked everyday and every night. I ended up placing every meet. I made it to CIC and County. The 400 changed my life and I’m training still for my 400
Can you do a 300m dash tutorial? I'm in need.
+Hisham Morsi I will add it to the list...its not an event that is run very often so there aren't a bunch of peeps looking for that specific race. It would be very similar to the 400 with a smaller float phase. If you watch my "how to run a 400" video that would put you on the right track and then you could make adjustments from there based on what works best for you.
Jaret Campisi Awesome! I've watched both videos, thanks Jaret your the best! :)
I’m an 8th grader, 14 y/o and my pr is 53.5. That’s second in my state for age group and I want to be at 51 or less by the end of next years track season.
+Jaret Campisi
When I run the 400m, I usually get like 1:20 but I want my average at 1:15 the last 100m is so hard, I need to be able to run the same speed over their
Btw I'm going to state in 1 month so plz help me
+Imtheminecraftpiggy last hundred is just mental strength and pushing ur limits. everyybody is broken so its not really speed
Make sure your form doesn't go to crap for that last 100.
And also 1:15? Unless ur like 10 idk what state ur in. I'm 13 and I'm not that great 64.3 pb
OMG I'm sorry but that is slow you need to run a 65 to even get looked at
First practice of the season tomorrow! So excited 😁
im not sure if you've mentioned this before but have you ran the 800m before for a race or just the shorter distances?
+Colossus Fitness I actually ran the 800 a few times when they needed me to run on our National 4x8 team in highschool...I believe I split 1:53 ish or something around there...you can still run great 800's off of 400 meter training for sure.
Jaret Campisi that's crazy man, you're a beast haha. yeah most definitely, i liked 800m more than 400m back in high school!
+Jaret Campisi haha shit, I did not enjoy the 800 at all. People always said the 400 hurdles were the worst race in track but I personally thought the 800 was worse...could have just been my training but man I did not like it. haha
+Jaret Campisi hahah I guess because you were a sprinter. That would make sense though! I mainly did 1500 and 3000m so that's why I liked 800 more. I did the 2000m steeple chase for a year and it was death 😂
+Jaret Campisi 800 to me was basically a sprint like the 400 but just 2 times longer and everyone seemed to die out the Last lap in my races ahah
my track coach said she didn’t figure out how to run the 400 correctly until stated her senior year and she won. Don’t expect yourself to be good the first year of training hard. races, especially this one, take time to figure out because everyone runs them differently
this is helpful because I run track
This is a fantastic video my dude. Nailed everything on the head. Keep up the good work.
+Haden Konopik right on man, appreciate that. Lots more videos coming so stay tuned!
Also for the 200m is it possible to top speed the whole race
Running as hard as you can the entire time is not how you will run your fastest times in any race. I've got a track and field playlist on my channel so head on over there and check it out for more informational videos
Jaret Campisi what should u be doing during the 5min rest periods between sets?
Jaret Campisi what should u be doing during the 5min rest periods between sets?
after 400 m you should keep walking not sit down and relax . if you sit then while running next 300 you will tight your legs
Thatgamerdownthestreet
U dont mean literally ,right ? Lol. Just like super exhausted ..? U mean ?
I have a track meet today so that's why I am watching this wish me luck
5:40 is when it actually starts
Good tips. I’ve been running track for 8 years now and this helped lots (btw, fix your sprint form; arms should be moving hip to pit and heels shouldn’t be kicking your butt)
My best 400 is a 57 and my best 300 is a 40, how can I work on my final stretch which is where I feel like I struggle the most (these were my pr from my 10th grade year, My 11th grade year season starts in about 2-3 months)
mono mono he literally said in the vid, just train hard and do the right type of training
love the video, going to have to suggest to my coach. we do 2 of each run from the 100m to 600m at 75% with about a minute break in between each one then work our way down again..I like the sound of this one better!
+Dorion Cipriani 1 min break seems really short dear god...yeah def give this one a shot. Its a great workout. I'll be posting more in the future so stay tuned!
+Jaret Campisi awesome, can't wait!
Hi Jaret, thank u for the video, little question : let's say you're in your Speed Endurance Cycle and u train 5-6 times a week, u can do 500-450-300 etc once or twice I guess, but what would u do the other days ? Fartleck, 120, 150, technique drills... ?
Thanks
Oh you just vary the distances and rest times but keep the intensity similar depending on what part of the season you're in...there are millions of workouts you can do just depends what you want to work on. I'll be putting up lots more workouts in the future for you guys so stay tuned.
+Jaret Campisi Will do thanks !
Last question, do u feel a lot slower now that u've gained 20 pounds or just not at the optimal weight ?
+Jcoach Zelemi yes I feel much slower at this body weight. I competed in college around 157 lbs and now that I'm 180 I'm not even that much stronger since I've been lifting for size not strength so yea def slower.
+Jaret Campisi too bad. We always have to make choices... Gotta say it's hard for me. Thank u very much for taking the time to answer
The 400m run requires the efficient use of the five energy systems that fuel biochemical/bio-mechanical movement, more commonly called running. We do off season, preseason, mid season, and championship season training based on these energy systems. The only heavy volume running is done in the off season and this is done for only two weeks. By preseason my runners never run farther than 350 meters during a practice session. With this method I have brought 16 and 17 year old boys down from 51 secs to 47 and 48 seconds in one season. This year I had a 13 year girl run a 56.32 400m. When she came to me 4 years ago she ran the 400 in 1.07:5. Another 13 year girl last year ran 1.07. This year she ran 1.00.03. Fast 200m times are needed to run a fast 400m in general, although some 800m runners with good foot speed can also do well in the 400m event.
I'm a freshman and I ran a 54:24 yesterday and am the 4th fastest freshman in CA
hunter Reynolds lmao I’m in 8th grade and ran a 54:13
thank you so freaken much
plot twist: the guy who beeped at the start was just his dad trying to say hi
I run the 100/200/4 by 100. For the 200, I go 90% in the first 100 meters then 100% and the last 100 meters. Is this the correct way to run it?
I also run the 200. For me, I've always just completely sprinted it. I build up to my fastest speed within the first 80 meters and then level out. The 400 however is different.
This help me so much thanks👌🏽Btw got 1st place for my race!
+Armando Hernandez Congrats! So happy to hear that :) Lots more coming so stay tuned and share with your friends :)

I’m a junior in HS and run a 54sec 400m. The school record is 49.4. My goal is to beat that by senior year
I am in my first year in college and I am currently not on the track team. Ive ran track my junior and senior years in hs and my PR in the 400 was 50.32 but in the 4x4 (1st leg) i ran between 48.6 and 49.2 ish (big difference sorry lol).
Do you think its worth it for me to give it a chance at walking on at D1 school or should I just work on experience at a D2 or so?
Ovalle_22 its a lil late for this cuz most colleges have closed their admissions but it depends on the program. email coaches and they can tell you what their program gives. some D2 schools are better than D1 schools
The complete 400 meter sprinter has to train above the distance (800m), race distance (400) and below distance (200), never neglect speed in any part of the training year.
Ur arm movement is incorrect
Because his arms is fit like big omg lol
I was told my arm movement is incorrect ever since I started running, and for the most part you are correct. However, that is what feels most comfortable to me and I was able to compete at a very high level in track so you don't always have to have "perfect" running form to do well :)

I ran 1:01.39 to open up my season in 400m. I’m training for decathlon.
Can you please discuss why are you resting for 5 minutes? I'm a 400m runner - that is my main event and when I do those strength and endurance workouts i usually rest not more than 3 minutes and its like 3 x 300 or 5 x 200. Every comment is appreciated I love advices you are giving away. Thanks
The way your running these reps are at a tempo pace. Yes the workout your doing is good speed endurance for 400s if your running these close to 100%
Seriously if you want to set an example. Set the example not look like your jogging it
Your body build is more a 100&200
And lastly what the fuck are those arms doing

I’m a Junior in High School and in my sophomore year, I ran a 1:05 for the 400m and a 31.10 for the 200m but this year I hit 28.40 in practice and I was wondering if it was realistic to approach 26-27 for the 200m and 58-59 in the 400m (Also I know I’m ass, but I just started doing track as a 10th grader, so I’m very inexperienced with this stuff)
Update: I ran a 24.5 and a 55.8 in my junior year. I’m trying to hit 23 and 52 this year to finish my high school career

Just got into running, no training, and no workout. Can anyone suggest any workouts/training to get my times lower?
Victor Lim working on technique is the most important part of running . What i usually do during the week is do b-skips , high knees , a-skips , running b-skips and butt kicks for 20 meters than sprint out pumping your arms . Make sure to do them almost everyday so your body can get used to doing those drills . Everynight focus on your core because you cant run without a core so do around 200 situps or untill it burns and 6-inch leg lifts for 2 minutes . And for running the 400-800 i do three 300s , five 150’s and 4 50 meter sprints . And i promise youll get them times down . I ran a 56 last year in the 400 and right now im sitting at a 51.8 and my pr for the 200 is 21.9 . Good luck
Your 100m time is good but you have awful stamina for 400+ distance
relatively, your best event is probably 100
Stick with 100m that is fast
400 runner here, good work out and tips but honestly your running technique is really bad, you barely move your arms, you also have long legs but your stride sucks
haha yeah i've been training for body building the past 2 years so I've put on over 20 lbs and haven't been running as much so my form as definitely suffered. I make these videos to share my knowledge and to help others so hopefully you can look past my less than perfect form :)

I have time trials on Wednesday and I have always wanted to be the best I can possibly be. I never felt like I was trying hard enough in previous years and decided to actually train and work my butt off. I have ran in relays (200m and once 400m) I actually used to come in first in my elementary years but now I'm in middle school and feel like trash. I'm gonna go and practice on Tuesday after track , then take an ice bath and get as much rest as possible lmao so I'm not really sore. I'm gonna try the 100m, 200m, and 400m just to get all my times in. I'm also going to apply your techniques to all my races. Hopefully i can practice and remember some techniques and if I do get in a relay or even better then that a 100m, 200m, or 400m race, then I can have more time to practice those techniques and be even better at them when the track meet starts. I'll probably post an update to this comment and see how this goes. I'm hoping to be a little better then before but I,m gonna try my absolute hardest.
Hey coach, I'm a freshman at Millbrook high school going on to sophomore year and my best 400 time was 57.94 but this year was my first year running the 400 just wanted to know if that's a good time for my grade level And if that's a good time overall . And I also run the 200 my fastest time was 24.84 this year
U got a good future in running.
Your 200m is really good just work on that 400
In texas thats dirt slow
Michael Emeto but its hard to tell where youll be so keep training a 24 means youve got talent how much idk
Gerald brown Texas is different. More athletes, better schools, better coaches, more funding, more track programs for kids, etc. I knew a kid who moved to Texas his sophomore year who did the 800m and 1600m. His PR that year was 2:09 and 4:52. When he moved to Texas his junior year he got down to 1:59 and 4:33, then 1:55 and 4:24 his senior season. That's a heck of a work ethic to be able to be able to excel like that.
For that work out you should try and hit 400m "55-57" 300m "38-40" 200m "23-28" that what I do and dropped from 50.55 to 47.34 and during season do a lot a 250,200,150 and starts better start u got quicker ya time gonna be
+Orlando hell yeah man congrats! That's a legit 400 meter time right there. Keep up the good work.
For 47 runner your times should be 50-52; 35-37: 23-24 if you are using nearly full recovery : 8 mins

Oof. I remember getting that in the beginning of the season. After practicing like Jared, My PB is now 1:04.37s. I didn’t think it would have worked but it did
Definitely gonna need this for spring im running a 54 right now trying to get down to a 50
Dylan Kersey how old are you? (even tho age is irrelevant)
Dylan Kersey I'll tell you one thing, a 50 second pace isn't comfortable at all.
Im 14 and I can run the 400 in .0004 sec is that good?
Running man stfu
That's a shit time. I do it in .000000000001 secs and I'm only 4
I ran a 400 yesterday in 1:25.3, and last Monday I ran a 400 in 1:28.6, so I did better yesterday, even though on Monday I almost won first place (even though i went against only my team members instead of the two schools we were against) except I lost feeling in my legs from how cold it was 😶😶😶
ran a 1:20 again for my first and 3rd meet. gotta another coming up in 2 days, trying to get down to at least 1:16, need to get away from the 20
You need to learn how to move your arms
Hey RUclips, I’m 13 years old and in seventh grade and I play soccer. I just ran a 400 with a time of 1:00. Should I consider running track? (I haven’t had any running training other than playing soccer)
UPDATE: I have ran in two meets so far and now I’m running a 56.89, hopefully by the end of the season I can run in the 55’s
It's good na
Bakvas h
I did a 58.0 in 7th grade. All I said was... I’m good if I slow down less than anyone else. It’s not like u sprint the whole thing. U need to be smart. Such as. Follow the lead runner till the end of the first 100m and then find ur speed in the first 100 stretch . And start speeding up along the bend and use the rest u have for the end of the race. Atleast it works for me. (I was top 3 top 2 in the colonial conference.so it may be different for u guys.)
im a sophmore and i run a 53.5, but i wasnt dead after, im having trouble exerting all my energy throughout the 400m
Just sprint at the end
Bro I ran the 400 for the first time in 7th grade that was also my first year of doing track ever and man I didn’t like it when I finished the 400. My time was 59.34. Yep high school is gonna be so fun 😭. Rip my legs also I need to work on my form and this video is helping a lot. People would always say that my arms look stiff when I run sometimes.
I ran 1:06 in 400 in grade 7 should i consider trying to do 400m at high school and get trained?
That's what I ran in High School as I stated getting better this was one of the times I ran
57 seconds to finish first lap of 400 meters is considered acceptable. The 4 x 400 meters relay race brings a record time of 3 minutes 17 seconds.
I’m in 8th grade and one of my friends on the tennis team just placed 2nd in the nation for the 8th grade 400m time (52.9, with the first in the nation getting a time of 52.7 and he also happens to go to my school). I want to catch up to him (I do realize that will be quite hard right now) so I’m starting to look at more videos about sprints. I usually work on distance (I do the mile run and also do cross country) and luckily I have one of the fastest times in the school but sprint wise I am definitely not doing any of those despite making the team. Hopefully I can begin to go faster but I am definitely not doing track in high school though.
