Which sprint drills you guys do on speed days? I’m thinking about sticking with 2-3 sprint drills on speed days and moving everything else to tempo days.
EX: Speed
Askips
Bskips
Run A’s
Str leg bounds
EX: Tempo
Askips
Bum kicks
Ankling
GPP: 3x10m
SPP: 2x20m
Normally I would do:
Ankling
Askip
Bskip
Bum kicks
Fast leg
Run A’s
Have seen the power speed video?
Yep… I’m slowly going away from drills with my athletes…
I only just joined this site, and I haven’t had the opportunity to view some of Charlie’s work, but could you explain why you’re slowly going away from drills with your athletes, RB34?
1: Shitty tech by athletes.
2 I can find other drills to use - I’m not using them for the purpose they were designed for.
What you gonna replace them with? How will you be teach sprint mechanics?
I use them to warm up the body and for mobility development - not really to teach sprint mech. I like the pose chop series little more then a/b’s etc…
How many days a week did you train last fall?
Where is this vid available? I don’t see it on the main page
probably means http://shop.charliefrancis.com/products/south-africa-series-practical-session-2-running-drills-and-starts
I don’t think that’s it. I don’t know when I got it. I just happen to see it one when when I was looking through some of my cf stuff. The vid is called power speed. It has Charlie and a athlete doin drills with and with out weights on the track. Then doing them on a slight hill
Between 4 and 5 last year. I was also playing flag football on weekends
It was a self-described realtime presentation that Charlie produced several years ago titled Speed & Strength. At the time I thought it was quite revealing regarding his concept on power speed and supports a good part on that topic (technical demonstration) as discussed in the Vancouver 2004 video. I also found it prerequisitional for the Fundamental Series and Peaking When It Counts videos.
yes I know the one, have that too. It and the med ball workout one aren’t in the store.
