258

My training time is usually shorter in gpp and much long in spp.

259

Why is that?

Today tempo
10x100
5x200
abs

260

Shorter sprints, lower intensity sets = shorter rest breaks btw sets etc.

263

Was that your last week of GPP?

264

no I still got a week or two of hills before I start track work. Im doing the full 7 weeks. My time last season were horrible.

265

going heavy on the squats in gpp.

266

Haha sounds like you learned your lesson…Did you slack off during your GPP last year?

BTW since your in Sunny Florida are you running indoors? If you are what are you doing for Speed End and Special Endurance??

Thx

267

Yea I came off a quad injury and didnt retrain it like I need to. My gpp was garbage last year.
Yea Ima hit some indoor meets this year. For speed end ima hit 60-80 meters until outdoor. for spec end ima kill 300’s. I want to not fear the 200 like I did last season.

268

What’s the point of the 300’s if you are going to be racing every week? I prefer to follow CF advice and stick with starts and submax 150’s while letting the meets take care of the major SE work.

269

Chris I have to agree w/RB. But then only you know if you need 300s. I find they dont do anything for me. 120s and 150s are my secret weapon LOLOL… I luvs me some 120s!!!

270

WEll the 300’s I was gonna knock out before and during the indoor season. Indoor I may run 2 meets maybe 3. So I will not stick with the 300’s for too long. I found myself dying in the 100 last season, something that has never happened before, I couldnt even run a fast 150 last season. I just want to build up my stamina a lil. I may do a good month of 300’s. Im not gonna do them for very long.

Did you do your 300’s on grass and what times were you hitting.

274

Yea I do them on turf. I havent been timing them. My goal is to just do them. I will start timing when I start sprinting.
