Answer 1

what your looking for is gaining muscle. that way you can be faster because your muscle will help you , but you will weigh much more because muscle weighs more than fat. also you wont look fat be look toned, or since your a guy you will look built. so you need to do do strength training. i don't really know advice on that i am a dancer we do a lot of dancers strenght training i rarely lift weights but i'm sure thats what you should do

Answer 2

eat things that doesnt make u fat like fruits that will fill u up

Answer 3

build muscle mass, also, you could do ballet or yoga to improve agility and endurance.

but since your a boy, you think anything involving dance is "g*y", which it isn't, i guess i'm no help.

you'd be surprised though, how challenging stuff like that is.

Answer 4

you should just work out a lot so that you can gain muscle and still maintain your speed and if you work out your legs you will gain even more speed

Answer 5

Answer 6

Eat and go to the gym.

Answer 7

eat more foods! and exercise!

Answer 8

You need to build more fast twitch muscles. Try doing the same workouts but a little less weight and as many repetitions in 30 seconds. Try adding some more protein to your diet as well. You can't build muscle unless your eating correctly.

Answer 9

You can do so by always practicing sport (e.g. walking, running) and making reasonable intervals between meals.
