I’m interested in becoming a sprinter. I’m 14 years old, and I’ve been interested in it for a while. I’ve been hitting the gym hard, but, as I’ve found out, it’s had a negative effect on my speed instead of a positive one. I’m about 50-60 kg’s and I’m 5’9 tall. I have a reasonably healthy diet.
I’m asking of the good people on this forum, to suggest positive exercises and training techniques to increase my speed, and decrease my time in the 100m dash.
There is no local trainer near me. I live in Scotland. If I am to become faster, it is most probably going to be my own doing, seeing as how I have nobody to coach me.
The most you could give me is a full workout plan. I have school in the morning from 9:05am untill 3:35pm. During the summer holidays I plan to use an online workout schedule produced by Tom Green on bodybuilding.com. I’ve emailed him but I was unsuccessful in the reply.
I already have the motivation, and the determination to become a sprinter. There is no doubt about that. everything set in my mind is positive.
Unfortuneatly, seeing as I don’t have a coach (that I know of) I can’t practice the correct starting, and sprinting techniques. Although, a few guidelines should set me on my way.
I have a County Sports Competition in June, which I’m training towards. Hopefully I can bring home a medal, but the competiton is extremely hard to run against.
I thank you for your time in reading this article. I put alot of effort into it, and I hope you ut the same into replying to me.
Thank you.
P.S. If you require any other information like my local gym facilities, or places where I can train just email me on kieranbinning@hotmail.com
