A Typical Speed SessionA typical speed session might consist of 5 sets of 10
repetitions in total.
Try to keep a work to rest ratio of 1:4. For example a 6 second sprint should be followed by approximately 24 seconds active recovery.
Speed training drills are best performed when the athlete is fresh. The best time to introduce speed wouldn’t necessarily be after a long endurance run or a weights session.
Make sure the athlete completes a full warm up before starting a speed training session. E.G. 10 minutes light aerobic exercise followed by some dynamic stretches.
Avoid static stretches in the warm up. These are best left until the end of the session when increasing/maintaining flexibility is important.
