Need to improve sprinting but can’t get out to the track?
Here’s a progression I do with all my athletes…no matter the size:
1) Low squat foot jumps (work on ankle stiffness as the priority)
2) Move into Supercat double squat jumps (first contact is hard with solid ankle, get off ground fast, produce lots of force)
3) Triple broad jump (cat like bounding, think explosive starts in sprinting with good hip extension and power)
4) Sled push (here is a 6 sec heavy push on my Force Treadmill at 75 load—solid starts with good ankle stiffness)
5) Curve treadmill top end single leg turnover (contact ground underneath hip from ball of foot, fast turnover)
6) 5 sec eccentric lunge right into plyo stride (control the eccentric then explode staying on toes)
7) Speed double Russian lunge jump with hip swivel (this one takes some work).
