Just a few questions (mainly around the issue of recovery):
Were the starts that you mention run up to 60m in preparation for indoors?
Typically how much recovery was between the breakdown runs of 6/5/4, 5/4/3, etc? Were they the same, or longer recoveries for the longer distances?
How much recovery between the two rep breakdowns (e.g. 2x600) and then between these and the 4x100 (as well as the time between these reps)
What sort of rest did the athlete get between the 10x100 and 6x150 sessions.
From what I have gathered over time (and I may have picked up some misinformation) alot of Tellez’s sessions used walk-back recoveries. Is this true?
FINALLY my interest lies in the fact that Charlie and Tellez were arguably (probably without question) the best sprint coaches of the 1980’s with athletes that reached top speeds comparable to the top sprinters of today 20 years on (Lewis 0.83 10m split in Seoul; Ben’s 0.81 10m split in Zurich)! They appear to “skin the cat” differently, however I am trying to find out what the possible common themes are in both systems that produced such increadible top speeds and 100m times. Common themes that I assume are shared by all successful world class programmes.
