Coach Holler, do you think inhaled corticosteroids that some kids take to prevent asthma would have a positive or negative effect on sprinting performance?
Hi Coach, I feel like I might be focusing/thinking too much abt running with “perfect” mechanics, but as a result, I think I might be slightly less aggressive and going slower than I actually can. Do you think I should just let my body flow naturally? - I think my mechanics are fine when I don’t think abt them. Or should I focus on mechanics during practice and come race time just don’t think abt it and focus on being aggressive and running as fast as I can? Thanks.
It's 5 seconds or less because the most important thing about sprinting is your start, and transition phases. By the time you sprint to 20-25 yards, you should be at your full speed. From about 25-40 yards, you're not actually getting faster, you're just trying to maintain the speed you built up from about 20-25 yards. When you run any further than 35-40 yards, you're actually just getting slower unless you're an elite athlete. That's why he says to keep sprints below 5 seconds.
@@eloiestellerfolch5008 Yes, and like Jerry said.... don't worry about the distance. Football players always seem to worry about the 40 yard dash. IMO, only worry about the first 20 yards. If you can't be fast in the first 15-20 yards, you're not going to be fast running 40 yards. If I were you, I would check out videos from Les Spellman. He has done a podcast episode with Tony, and he trains football players for the NFL draft.
@@erics607 I respectfully disagree with this. Running 10s and 20s will NEVER improve speed. Sub max speeds do not challenge the CNS. Improving max velocity is the tide that lifts all boats.

Don’t know.

Thinking too much slows you down. Let it rip!
Hey coach, you say sprints should be 5 seconds or less. My 40 yd is well over 5 seconds, should i run 30 yards?

@@erics607 soo... should i shorten my sprint distance for It to be 5 seconds or less?

No. 6-7 seconds close enough to give

Why shouldn’t you do static warmups?
Just a waste of time or more of a physical reason?
@@ronaldlake1031 Waste of time and, *STRETCHED* RUBBER BANDS DON’T SHOOT AS FAR!
