Hey guys,
Im relatively new to this board and the training concepts. I will be starting training in a week or so for 200m/400m and have a few queries.
My coach has given the group a schedule to follow during the general preparation phase;
Monday- track ( 800metre and 400metre runs at 3/4 pace with short recovery)
Tuesday- weights (snatch, squat, clean and bench)
Wednesday- OFF
Thursday- Track (400/200 metre runs at 3/4 pace with short recovery)
Friday- OFF
Saturday- 3 mile run/Hill
Sunday- OFF
I was just wondering if this was the right way to go about general preparation for 200/400m and whether i need more weights/ add tempo/circuit workouts etc…
My PBs last year on about 8 weeks proper (intensive) training (missing any sort of GPP due to a broken ankle) were;
200m-24 (timed in training at 23.7)
400m-53
I obviously want to smash these this season so any help on this routine would be great.
Cheers
