Don’t know nothing, but I’d like to know tonnes about they hard training, everything bout it(their GPP oct/nov/dec/jan/ type work, all of it) IF ALL THESE TIGHTO INSIDERS WOULD SHARE, but from researching/reading past stories/inteviews from past years they always say they be still working hard in month of may, at least for Powell, when he been laying down fast openers. I’ve read about them saying they still training hard background distances around may/june times. PJ, and these other elite coaches with athletes in Grand Prix type races can probably expand more on what they running during these days before Major Championships.
Reading about Stephen Francis having the CFTS in his grips when being interviewed, leads one to the conclusion that CFTS basics must be used by good number of elites. Also I may be biased to this looks right flies right sprinter type training(2 a days/3x a week) seeing as I’ve always been one to carry out training of this type for myself, adding weights on to sessions of different non-weight cns intensive type exercise.
The reason I asked is because your statement was a bit off based on what they did the last 2 seasons, but I’ll leave it at that. Asafa is definitely doing his speed work and I doubt he is doing very intense weights right now.
True.
I don’t think Gay has to worry about peaking for US Trials either. He should worry about just getthing through in one piece. Who’s gonna beat him from the US? Leonard Scott :rolleyes: ?
We never know what can happen. Leonard Scott hasn’t competed indoors, he opened with 21.05 on 5 May, then 10.34 on 20 May, then next race 10.10 on 2 June. If he continues like this… This spring Smith was confident that Leonard will do a fast time this year (as opposed to his 9.91 last year i presume…).
Where is Marcus Brunson, 6.46 indoors, then only 1 outdoor race so far 10.26 on 20 May, he is wise to avoid the US sprint madness, he and others might pop up when it counts.
I hope the wind will be +ive at USATF unlike the past years. Gatlin’s win margin last year was awsome, probably one of his best ever race.
Will Tyson run 9.7 race after race from May to September, the answer is ?
10.10 June 2 where Tyson dropped nearly .5 on him in the 2nd half of the race? I guess we’ll see but I never have faith in guys that struggle with top end speed.
