2010 Indoor Track Program

1/5

(pre-meet day)
warm up
2x30m blocks
1x25m three-point stance

notes:
-a little sore from yesterday :confused: guess that’s expected with the volume i did
-felt powerful out of the blocks, but stride rate felt somewhat slow
-i was planning 3x30m blocks but got kicked off the indoor track by basketball, so i did my last one across a side court
-hand-timed meet on rubber track tomorrow, running 55m (goal->6.6h,6.7h) and 4x200m (goal->split in 24’s)

1/6

warm up
1x25m w/ overspeed band
1x25m three point stance
1x15m blast out
1x55m (6.7h)
cool down time
warm up
1x200m (4x200m, split 25.5 :()
(all run on rubber track w/ flats)

notes:
-the hand time seemed slow, my dad also timed it and got 6.6h plus i think my time was adjusted because another kid who ran “6.7h” beat me
-stride rate felt slow again at top speed, may have been overstriding during 55m
-fell behind from 25m-45m, rest of race felt strong
-felt exhausted while warming up for the 4x2, translated to bad time

1/7

light warm up
10x100m-150m@60%-75%
static stretching

2x10 push ups (pause at bottom, explode up)
1x10 BW squats
1x10 BW front lunges
2x30 sec side plank (1L, 1R)
1x10 sit ups
2x10 one-hand snatches@45 lbs
1x30 sec mountain climbers

notes:
-legs felt real sore, was planning to lift but nixed it, will lift sat
-i would’ve stretched last night, but i got home to late and had to go to bed :confused:
-did what coach calls “sprinter mile” today, between each running rep is one of the strength exercises i lifted above
-found out today that the splits my coach recorded add up to .6 higher than the 4x200 relays actual time, i’m hoping he timed my leg through a second finish line that is beyond the 4x2 finish, which subtracting this .6 would put me at the 24.9 split i was hoping for

1/8

(pre meet day)
jogging
warm up
1x30m three point stance
2x25m block starts
light static stretching

goals for tommorrow, 55m -> 6.6h, 4x200m split, 24’s

notes:

3x8,6,4 lat pull downs@ 110 lbs
(friend’s weights)

notes:
-reaction time felt slow and won the 55m by .3, if someone was pushing me i bet i would’ve run 6.6h
-was also way ahead in the 4x220 yd, was able to run very relaxed but didnt have anything pushing me to go faster
-will do 200 reps abs and static stretching tomorrow, too exhausted to do anything more today
-found out that when i set a rep goal im able to lift much better, no more AMRAP’s for me (i was very surprised i made ten reps at 150 lbs, didnt know i could do that considering i only did like 5 at 160 lbs doing AMRAP)

1/10

weigh in (138 lbs)
200 reps abs/core
static stretching

notes:
-the most sore muscle is my traps today, go figure
-i weigh in every sunday morning right after i wake up, by the end of the day i usually gain 5-7 lbs from food, water weight, etc.
-at my high (end of fall) i was weighing in 144 lbs, not sure whether that weight lost is muscle or fat or both…

notes:
-all runs were on pavement up a hill

-i emailed the coach at a college i am interested in attending and he said that he has two freshmen that have run 6.94 and 6.97 in the 60m; anyone know what type of time i should be aiming to run in the 55m by hs graduation if i’d want to run there?

1/12

notes:
-all runs were run at max effort while staying relaxed

1/13

easy warm up
ladder drills :frowning:
wall runs 2x30sec :confused:

300 reps abs
1x6 Band pull throughs (thick black band)

icing and stretching hip

notes:
-my hip was popping during the ladder drills and wall runs, so once i felt swelling my coach told me not to do them anymore. This hip thing is almost a good thing because I feel no pain (or popping for that matter) from it while running, but it exempts me from most ladder drills and wall runs
-normally i would’ve taken the day off today, but my hs team meets every weekday and we had weightroom today, so i just pretty much did what i didnt do yesterday but wanted to do because i had to do something

1/14

warm up
55m -> 6.7h
300m -> 39.4h (qualified for Coach’s Invitational)
(150m rubber flat track, fhs)

school dance (whew, harder workout than my meet, haha)

notes:
-not sure how accurate the handtimes were today because i came in second in my heat by a couple feet and the winner got the same time as me, i think that me and third place (neck to neck) mightve had our times adjusted slower because first places time was off
-start and top speed felt good, 10m-30m is still my weak point, may be a result of hip height lagging behind running angle
-the 300 was my first in almost two years, i probably shouldve ran the first lap a little faster, i mite be running the 300 a little more often than the 4x2 now
-didnt realize that the 300 required so much core strength, abs were really tired after that race

1/17

weigh in (137 lbs)
static stretching

I found it interesting you combine track and baseball. I’ll probably be doing something similar this next year. I’ll probably be playing baseball games most weekends I don’t have a track meet during track season. Do you train both things at the same time, or when baseball starts you drop track altogether? Because I saw you had some BP during track season.

I wouldn’t think combining both would be a problem, and I think baseball might even help in the core strength department and accel. development (in particular if you play outfield you do short max sprints constantly during a game or practice).

Best of luck in your upcoming meets.
