Thanks bro, I really appreciate that. I wish I could do it all for free, but I gotta keep the bills paid haha. Sorry it’s been a little while but I didn’t wanna put up something low quality just for the sake of posting. Should have some more stuff coming soon 💪🏽💪🏽
Since sprinters and jumpers have frequent knee problems, I was thinking if you could make a video on knees-over-toes v knees-not-over-toes. Your videos have really helped me.
Man, this is some high level stuff. Great work and effort put into this! You can almost endlessly discuss the efficacy of loaded vs nonloaded and biomechanical changes with load (which has a lot to do with the individual athlete as well), but that aside what a brilliant video. The way you summarize it all in schematic form conforming to various needs of the specific athlete is quite impressive. As someone who strives for the same emphasis I can only hope to improve enough to do it as concisely as you. Thank you for the great work! Looking forward to what's next!
Hey bro, you should do a video on “how do you know if you know you’re well conditioned for Track”? And also list some samples of track conditioning workouts - Thanks
Great video man I have a question, when should i do resisted sprints? Before lifting? After lifting? The day before or after lifting? How can i combine resisted sprints with my strength training and my jump training? Thank you man i love your videos
Hi Cody, what a great video which we find absolutely informative. Can you tell us should these sets and reps as per "Resisted Sprint Training Workout Ideas" be performed at 100% speed or reduced to around 90%. Keep up the great work. Cheers.
Hey Terrence! Thanks for watching. I’d base if off of the goal. For example it’s important to perform resisted sprints with a rigid ankle, so athletes who collapse their ankle at ground contact might be better off going at 90% with the focus on keeping the ankle stiff during ground contacts. Then they can progress intensity while maintaining the rigidity. For an experience athlete who is healthy and has been training for some time this season, id aim for 95-100% intensity most reps and most sessions.
That's great, working with your experience and knowledge within the resistance field we will certainly let you know our outcome after our upcoming Championship meet in March. @@ATHLETE.X
Hi Cody "ATHLETE.X just a little tip that I have used using a drag sled, if you use a resistance band doubled back between the harness and the sled as I have, you will eliminate all the back jolting associated with harness training. Has worked a treat with my son's sled work. He now enjoys all his sled work with zero jolts!
I like the X harness because you can turn it into a waist harness by wearing both loops together around the waist, while still being able to use it as a chest harness.
Never use the X harness. But I guess X harness is better for very heavy weight while waist harness helps you to push your hip forward during sprinting.
Very very important information for Sprinters. I quite Impressed by speech. My Son already working which you told. Thanks a million for very nice information. Warm Regards
I use the Exer-Genie: athletex.us/recommends/exergenie Its pretty useful! You can use it for sprints, bounds, drills, lunges - nearly any exercise. It has a wide range of resistance settings, different lengths, harnesses, etc., so you can customize it for your purposes. I use the X-Harness so that I can choose between chest or waist.
Cody, do you think if one has an Exergenie, there would be no need to ever do accelerations using a sled, or would a sled still have its use? Also, what are your thoughts on adding weight to the upper arms or both upper arms and forearms for training acceleration? Why not add some resistance to the arms as well to specifically train the arm drive from the shoulders?
You could load the upper arm to get a better feel for arm drive from the shoulder (instead of internally curing the hand and having too long of a lever). I think a company called EXOGEN or something like has that sort of thing embedded in a compression sleeve. I want to try their calf weights to overload the hamstrings and hip flexors. You can still use a sled if you want, might be nice to mix up the type of resistance just so you don’t get too used to any one thing. You don’t need to go out of your way to use both though.
@@ATHLETE.X Thanks. Yes that's the company. Very expensive, but looks good. I saw that they have both an upper and lower arm sleeve that you can add weights to. Do you think attaching the weights to both the upper and lower arm would be best, or upper arms only?
Earlier in the year, the work I'd do for top speed would include some resisted sprinting, and very early on could be limited to only resisted sprints or something like speed capacity (which I will have info one once I edit some things I recorded). By the middle of the fall, I'd shift toward blended days, such as something like contrasted 40's or resisted sprints following flying sprints. Toward the end of the fall, I think they are better kept separate. The reason being is that speed itself is such an elusive quality, so I think when truly trying to develop speed (increase the velocity at which you can sprint), the training for that day should be as high velocity as possible, with short ground contacts, and keep the work as alactic as possible (at least in that your muscles shouldn't feel the burn on a speed day). When separating them, you can combine them with a day where you do shorter resisted sprints (4x20m heavy, 4x40m medium resistance), endurance bounding (6x40m resisted, 4x60m straight leg bounds, 4x60m skips for distance), or speed endurance work (4x40m resisted, 1-3x 80-120m unresisted), Hope that helps!
Hi Cody, I know you don't answer a lot of TH-cam comments, but if you could, where did you get that harness @ :55? Could you also tell me the spec's to what it is and where I could purchase it. Thanks. Its for my son.
I have a question. When we load the sled, do we count the weight of the sled? Say I need to load heavy 90 pounds but the sled weighs 45. Would I just add one 45lb plate or two 45lb plates to the sled that weighs 45lbs?
Hey cody, how do you increase the amount of force you put into the ground? Is it simply just weighlifting more or is it about genetics? A lot of my friends have longer strides than me but i have higher stride frequency (that is the reason i keep up with them) I already do a lot of weightlifting and powerlifting, and i consider my self very strong for my age and size. I have been working on my technique and it is kind of getting better. I am about average height, and i see a lot of people shorter than me that have longer strides. I do a lot of power cleans and squats. Should i start doing more plymoterics?
hey, love your videos! is there a reason why you chose the waist harness instead of the X-harness? I'm guessing the x-harness could limit your arm movement negatively since its so close to the shoulders keep this stuff up, I'm trying to spare some money for your program!
Hey J! I actually did get the X Harness, but I’ve been using it at the waist, wearing both loops at the same spot. Since I’ve used a chest harness for a while using sleds, I wanted to switch things up. Wearing it on the chest seems to work just fine though.
@@ATHLETE.X What are your thoughts on loading with harness(shoulder) vs belt(hip)? How does this impact the training adaptations? I'm no expert, but my thoughts are In regards to the spine. It appears that if loaded through belt, there is some de-compressive action when compared to harness(shoulder) loaded? I thought this would be great place to start the dialogue.
On exer-genie, one word of caution is to really, really make sure that there are no knots in the rope! Can't emphasise that enough! One can get a horrible whiplash while pulling the rope if there is a small knot that one overlooked.
Sir I am from India..in march month I have multi events competitions(800,100,shotput,highjump and long jump).. Sir pls give me a training routine. I train daily 2times..
Hello Cody. Great training video. Please let me know exactly what type of pulley you use for the resistance sprints. I can see that you can go longer with the one you are using than any other similar tool I have seen in the market. I am referring to the bungee cord attached to the red harness. Those being sold can only stretch up to about 30 feet and when you reach that limit there is a very drastic and unpleasant recoil. Your pulley equipment appears to stretch for longer and with no recoil. Grateful for your feedback on how I can find a similar tool for my training session. Many thanks.
@@loiriccardo Sure thing! I was considering getting one but wanted to use it on high school tracks to minimize the pavement-pounding my body takes if I were to sprint on the streets or sidewalks but all the tracks are locked up in my area!
I understand Patrick. Same story on my side regarding tracks being still closed these days. Am lucky to train in a football field in a residential village early in the morning when nobody is around. Regarding resisted sprints, I have done parachute and sled but am very interested in trying the exer genie especially to practice added effort from the block starts. And I can hook it to a goal post for now. Let me know if you get it. I may just order one. Take care.
@@loiriccardo I've never tried a parachute. I've just been doing steep hills until someday hopefully soon, the tracks will be accessible again. Here's another device similar to the Exer-Genie that I found: stpfitnessproducts.com/shop/ols/products/stp-bullet-vr-trainer This one allows you to choose the cord length which you can go much longer than Exer-Genie.....the company said even 100 meters maybe longer.
I just wanna say that I love your content and your videos have made my knowledge for track increase tremendously, but I just want to give my critiquing input in for a second lol. Sometimes, IN MY OPINION, you go into a little too much depth for things and it makes me lose my attention in the video, and I feel like it may happen for others too. Again, this is not me saying your videos aren’t good because they’re certainly great, it’s just me saying sometimes they can get a little boring.

Not trying to spread any type of negativity, just stating my opinion! Haha but anyway keep up the great work man!
No worries man I appreciate the input. I agree, and think that one of the things holding me back is that I don’t have enough simple content which can easily reach the masses.

I’m pretty sure you would count the sled.
Yes similar to one lifting 100 pounds, while the weights are 25 on each side and the bar is 50(just for example not to be realistic for the bar).
I also bought a sled and it's quite good
Just the rope is too long(10m)
Would that be a problem?
