Too much of a good thing - In & Outs

We did do a lot of in-and-outs, but remember there is a BIG CNS cost to speed change drills so we tended to drop them close in to meets, particularly outdoors. While the 20-20-20 drills did influence Ben’s pick-up in actual races, it happened EARLY in the race- not much past 5 or 6 meters, because, at full blast from the blocks, he’d reach the speed where the drill kicked in that much sooner. As a rule, you need a fair bit of time with drills, as you can perfect your technique over the required number of repetitions with far less energy cost.

How much were speed change drills done during the indoor season?
