How do I become faster in track?

Question

im sort of a decent speed...

around 33 seconds in a 200 meter

15.6 seconds in 100m

but id like to become faster

what can i do to become a faster sprinter

Answer 1

idk ur age but, no offence but those times r pretty slow, unless ur in like 4th or 5th grade

u should learn to use starting blocks and buy a pair of spikes

stop eating junk food and eat more protein

as for training, run sprint reps of 40-60m dashes to try to increase ur acceleration rate

sprint reps of 150m and 200m

dont just sprint a couple of em, make a plan

for example, 2 sets of 200m with 4 reps per set

try not to run too much long distance, that'll give u slow twitch muscle fibers, u need fast twitch muscle fibers to be a more powerful runner

do a track workout every 2 days, and get plenty of sleep

im probly an avg to lil below avg runner btw, check sources

Answer 2

all of the above. also buy spikes.
