My quest for 6.7

[ESTI]

Looking at what you posted, you ran several races under 7.10 in the past 4 weeks. Not sure what your entire weekly training is like but I would say there should be a drop in time coming. What are you doing on the recovery end? hot colds? Massage? microstretching?

Maybe the training isn’t the issue.??

I think that vertical jumping has more to do with relative strength than sprinting speed seeing as how long the vertical ground contact is. I’d rather have better reactive strength via hurdle hopping and bounding than a good vert. My reactive strength is pretty bad.

Initially my weight loss did make me faster, going from a given state of fitness and losing weight while maintaining that fitness yielded better performances. But i think some training considerations led to overtraining which ultimately saw me go back to my original performances. We’ll see what happens this summer when I get back to some volume and intensify from there.
