How does “carryover” relate to underlying fitness?
Athlete A: a runner with good intensive capacity doing 3x200m @ 95 %
Athlete B: a runner with good volume capacity doing 3x200m @ 95%
How does carryover differ between the athletes? If we consider athlete A having a history of short to long (30m – 60m – 100m – 150m @ 95%) progression and athlete B having the opposite road (600m – 500m – 400m – 300m @ 70-75-80-85%). Is the carryover from the 3x200m @ 95% “hitting” different physical capabilities at that specific moment in the athletes?
Not sure how to answer that, but I think that for there to BE a specific answer, there would have to be a specific approach.
The better way to think of the situation is:
How can the athlete best take advantage of his own individual strengths?
As for Special Endurance- it is just that- special. While there must be a foundation in place in order to carry out the spec end in an effective way, the speed of execution of each special end task is specific to itself, as we’ve often discussed here before. In other words, all the 300m SE runs in the world at 10mps will not yield any end at a speed in the high 11s or higher, as required in the 100m.
This is one thing I have been trying to understand and search the site extensively for.
What exactly does Special Endurance do since it does not seem, in accordance with your explanation above, to directly help your endurance in the 100m. Only 100m and slightly above intuitively would directly help 100m endurance. Is Spec. End. an adjunct/extension to General Fitness?
I am trying to understand fully when, as a beginning sprinter to include Special Endurance and how it fits into the whole picture.

Issurin and Kaverin: ATR (Acumulation- Transformation and Realization)
that it explains a model of organization of the training process
Thee is a lot of info in the 400m training thread in the archives and in the Forum Review about the role and nature of special end.
Yest the Spec End demands are specific to the speed of execution of the event- so SE is a one-way street, in terms of direct carry-over. IE Speeds above race speed contribute to speed reserve while speeds below do not.
BUT, first you must GET TO the Spec End that is of prime importance and that requirement can be approached from shorter-to- longer, OR from longer-to-shorter.
While it would appear, in light of the benefits of achieving speed reserve sooner, S-t-L is superior, it all depends on tolerance and those with a less developed nervous system may thrive best on an L-t-S approach
In the new material, there will be graphic presentations of the two approaches with specific examples, including volumes and intensities.
while i essentially knew this, thanks for the response. i dont think the guys at blockbuster video ever replied to it. and whoever pasted my post, you should state the source in the post.
We’re still in the process of dividing up the material into topics at the same time we’re finishing up a training camp video project, so we’ll be letting you know very shortly. There is a LOT of material here!
