Ok - yesterday I ran my first electronic timed 200m and it was horrible.
Catastrophy - all I can do is try to forget it. That was 2004 - new start.
So I decided to start a training journal - comments welcome.
My plan for 2005: compete in a few 50m/60m in Jan/Feb, 100m/200m May/June, 400m/200m in September.
Age: 34, did one year Sprint training on my own.
Height: 178 (5-10)
Weight: 170 (offseason) - 164 (comp eason)
I got to work, so usually I can’t manage to train more than 4 times a week.
Basically for Indoor I plan to do sg. like:
Mon: Weight+Plyos
Wed: Weight+Plyos or Speed+Plyos
Fri: Tempo+Core
Sat: Speed+Plyos or Hills
(Main target is to increase explosive power, vert jump till the end of the year, acceleration up to 50m - the indoor track is short)
GPP (first few weeks) I’ll do hill sprints on Sat, closer to indoor comp, I’ll do speed on Wed and Sat.
Usually I have problems recovering…
The days I choose might not be optimal, but depend on when I have access to gym or track.
