gonna take a few days off and chill with my girl be back next week.
I don’t understand why you wouldn’t do tempo, keeping the focus on really light, if your sore. It should help.
What’s your 100 PB? You sound pretty damn fast.
My pb is 10.43. I ran that about 2 summers ago. im trying to get back down to it. I do do tempo work i have just been tied up with work and other appointments. I admit i have neglected my tempo work the last 2 weeks. I will defintly make sure i get some in this week. thx for the feedback.
How do you space your workouts typically? Do you get 2 good speed/weight sessions in a week? I am trying to fine tune my volume and frequency of workouts. That is by far the hardest thing for me to nail down. Could you show me your typical weekly plan?
ie:
speed/weights
tempo
SE

Chris6878, where are you located, how old are you, did you run in college? I just like to get a little more background on everyone whose workouts and performances interest me. Thanks

thur tempo 1000- 2000 m
Fri speed/Weights try to do some flys, Block work and plyos
Sat tempo if i feel up to it.
I might change this schedule later on but this is what i try to do now
chris, im posing this question to many on here. are you doing your workouts in spikes or flats, if it fluctuates, which are you doing in spikes and which in flats? I have been doing everything in flats except for one day i decided to put them on for 2x300 just to see where i was in my training. gpp i don’t usually use spikes because i am not focusing on obtaining speed as much as overall strength endurance. This is why i wait until december before any raw speed is done, ie 30’s, 40’s, 50’s. I usually just do strength endurance and special endurance, with a little bit of speed endurance, but even then i don’t go under 150 meters. This year the emphasis is on special endurance even more because of my bad 300 meter times. Let me know what you think. Sorry for flooding your journal with my thoughts. Anyone else, what do you think? If you want to reply, go to dazs journal, thanks.
monday 8/11
Today was alright felt loose except for my right hammie. As i was sprinting i felt to relax especially coming out of the blocks.
2 X50 meter strides
3x 30 relaxed starts
1X25 out of blks 3.0 ( wanted to run a 30 but had the cone in the wrong place)
3X 30 in 4.0 3.91 4.12, Bad
2X60 in 6.92 6.94 bad
did some plyo’s went home. I need to work on my form and ankle flex
Speed endurance would be 60-120meters.
My workout would be 1X60 with blocks, 1X80 with blocks 1X100with blocks and 120 with or without blocks. all with full recovery.
YOu can also 2x120 and 2x60 or 2X100 and 2x80 or whatever but the speed endurance is hit up to 120meters sprints maintained for 6 seconds is considered speed endurance anything less is maximum speed. I try to stay around 260-360 meters per speed workout.
