How to improve my sprinting ?

Question

i can run pretty fast but i'd like to improve my running any advise ?

Answer 1

First of all you can do lots of high knees

Arms - Keep at 90degree angle when you run

Torso - Keep back straight but not so that it hurts

Shoulders - Relaxed shoulders

Key thing is to relax! the faster and harder you try and run the faster you will slow down.

Answer 2

if u want to work on your speed i suggest long slow runs such as 60 minute runs.  and it is very important that you don't sprint any of it.

Answer 3

*Wear spikes if on a track

*Do more intense training, more often

*Eat lots of protein

*You would improve by runing on your toes and bring your knees up. Also, make sure that your arms are not crossing your body because that's just wasted motion. and also, keep your chin up.

Also, before races eat a banana trust me, it really helps because of the natural sugars in the banana give you lots of energy :)

Answer 4

jog everyday and also sprint on a track a couple of times.

and this technically has to be everyday!

and get some leg strength.

i do this everyday. its called a hollow hold.

it helps abs *more* but it really hurts the legs too.

you lift your legs and shoulders so only your lower back has to

touch the floor. you can do that for like 15 seconds at first but then you need to start holding it for like 30 seconds. and you can start moving your feet like your swimming or do scissors with your feet.

well hope that helps. i do gymnastics aswell so sorry if that didnt make any sence. =)
