Does anyone have tips on how to build speed endurance/durability because I feel like I have a good amount of speed but I just can’t maintain it for long.
The key is your winter training. Twice a week hill-training will build your speed endurance on the track very measurably. I don't know what level you're at or how old you are so I cannot suggest specific hill training sessions but you should be able to find suitable ideas on-line.
I’m 17 this is my first year of track my 40 yard is around 4.4 and my 100m is around 11secs. I’m 5’11 and 150 pounds. I’ve been training during the off season this year but I feel like I’ve neglected my speed endurance training I can only run at my full speed for around 70 meters (and that might be highballing it) after that I lose speed drastically. That’s why there is a big difference between what I can do in a 100m vs what I can do in a 200m. I feel like it is essential for me to master muscle endurance for me to be able to go sub 11 this year and I was hoping someone might have some good exercises or know the amount of speed endurance I need to practice weekly. If you can help that would be greatly appreciated 👍
@@paramount4458 Are you a member of an athletics/track club? If not, you should join your nearest one because that would give you access to direct, face to face, coaching (notwithstanding covid limitations for the moment). Your speed loss after 70 metres might just be an endurance issue but it might also be to do with your balance and technique.... do you start to 'rock' a little at the 70 metres mark? Your coach can observe this and advise appropriately. As for hill work, you need to find a hill that is steepish but has a smooth, even surface and not less than 150 metres long. Allow about 40 mins for the session which should comprise a good warm up, lots of stretching and then 3 sets of 8 as follows. Start at the bottom and run hard (about 80% speed) for 130 metres up the hill, turn and jog gently back down to the bottom, turn immediately and do the same again..... let's say 6 times in total to start with (building to 8 over a few weeks). After this, take a 6-7 minute break, jogging around keeping warm, and then do another 6 .... and then, after a similar break again, do a third set of 6. If you do two sessions a week like this from now until the track season, mixed in with your speed work of course, you will find you have a lot more speed endurance. Remember though, hill training must be of a solid quality, there's no point jogging up the hill or slowing down early because you get tired.....these must be quality sessions at 80% speed for the full 130 metres and not less so, if necessary, start at 3 sets of 4 and then build up over a week or two to 3 sets of 6 and then 3 sets of 8. Good luck.... oh and 11 secs at 17 is very decent... what's your 200m time? And endurance is not a quick fix...... you must keep this going through the winter period to build up a significant benefit from it.
@@david2804me thanks for the advice man like I said I just joined the track team this year as well as started sprinting this year however I have not really had many practices where the track coach can focus on me because I am involved in other sport. I do believe my form needs some work as I feel off balance and feel like I’m struggling / jerking later on in the race. I run around a 25 or 26 usually in the 200 the last time I timed it . However my coach is timing us next week and I will tell you my exact times for 100m and 200m. My goal by the end of the year is to beat the school record of 10.7 in the 100m but I don’t know how achievable this is.
This kid looks sooo powerful and strong when he runs. And he gets great knee lift. If he is developed right and he learns to relax his body while maintaining and increasing speed he will be something to see at the elite professional level. Exciting runner.
His full open stride appears so powerful. He's not the quickest guy out of the blocks-at least on the world stage-but when he hits his 'top gear' he really moves out.
Most people have no understanding of just how fast these guys are. We all knew that one fast kid in high school who maybe placed top ten in the state. But top 5 in the nation is a whole other level. They are in a category by themselves.
2 years ago there was a national invitational race I went to here in the SD. There was one kid, I think from Minneapolis, who came here. He was a big black guy that towered over all the little white boys. He was the national champ the year before if I recall correctly. He had horrible form and get-out of the blocks, but when he got rolling he blew by everyone at the 50 meter mark like they were standing still. The entire crowd actually laughed at it. He was like a man among boys. If he ever got his form down and a better get-off, he'd be unreal. I just looked him up and his name was Joe Fahnbulleh from Hopkins, MN. He ran a 10.70 at the race I watched, but his best was 10.35 in high school. I guess he won the gold in high school in the 200 and bronze in the 100.....which makes sense since his top end speed was insane but his start and first 50 meters was pretty much garbage (he was in 5th place at the 50 meter mark but won by a mile it seemed lol). So he was exactly what you are referring to lol. It was a laugher.
The Matthew Boling legend has just begun. It's obvious he has unusual physical conditions. Michael Johnson, Carl Lewis, or even Usain Bolt, must really enjoy watching him run. Remember he's only 21!
Good point. He waddles from side to side at the start too much and is tense in his upper body. FloJo talked about how she had to relax to shatter world records, as she did.
@@SPIDERM0OSE Not sure what your comment means b/c I'm in agreement with you. I was just adding to another comment that I made somewhere else, "Drugs help"
Good point. FloJo was able to shatter world records with her attention to running form, foot turnover sped, and, she said, with more "relaxation." Boling can learn from all that. Anyone who says form isn't important in a sprint is unaware. Some may run fast with bad form, granted, but bad form is slowing them down, nonetheless.
Here after he edged Laird with a 20.19 indoors, while combining those monstrous strides with horrible form. The power is impressive. If he gets that form right he will be an absolute force in years to come.
The narrator's expertise is specious at best. Speaking about why Matthew is so fast he does not mention fast-twitch muscles in this video. If you want to run as fast as Mr. Boling you will need to be very picky when choosing your parents and after that you will need to have a passion for sprinting and train correctly. Cheers
I think the key is his extension to be honest, while his knee lift is good, the power in the back portion of his stride is what gets him the length between steps
The knee lift has nothing to do with it. Speed comes from pushing off the track on the back part of the stride and how long you're in the air. That's why A skip and B skip drills are the worst inventions of mankind.
@@1049berkeley well, you're wrong. It's more about the ankle cycling higher than the other legs knee. And the majority of the stride covered from the push off the track which is all in your quad. The hamstring strength has nothing to do with speed. Foot should hit directly under your body weight and push down the track. You should be leaning forward at the ankles. Your foot should never "prance" out in front of you and pull yourself across the track. That's how hamstring pulls happen. But all the know-it-alls keep teaching that crap.
Erriyon Knighton seems to be a better talent than Matt Boling. Boling is turning 21 in June but Knighton is only 16, in high school but currently is the best high school sprinter. Dude almost broke the national 100m record for his age group. He ran a 10.29 100m this year and has run sub 20.35 secs in the 200m...so yeah, Knighton has wayyyy much more upside and is still growing and becoming stronger.
Thanks for the video. The facts of how he runs but not how he got there. I trained in high school first in cross country for endurance. Me and another world class sprinter who was the champion in 1974 trained by being pulled from a car teaching 30 - 35 mph and doing a lot of stairs afterwards. Without giving away secrets I can say we even practiced out running a horse. He have to learn how 4 legged animals run so fast before you can reach their speed. Tge longer stride and faster recovery is the trick and it takes a lot of practice since early childhood. Jim Thorpe was a decathlete and Matt would have a potential for the same.
Be interesting to see his fast twitch/slow twitch muscle ratio. They were just beginning to get somewhat scientific about it in 1968 at the high altitude training camp in Lake Tahoe. After that it seems to have dropped out of sight.
He’s fast as hell but he needs to think about the long jump and 400m because the 100-200m doesn’t look good for him as a pro in the future. I feel he’s probably will start competing in the decathlon in the future
What happened? He showed much promise in high school, is he just another one of those high school prodigies like Yoshihide Kiryū that fades away? How does one digress like that?
Watching clips of him make it look like the film speed has been bumped up. Sure he's got long strides, but he just does everything faster. Watch one of these clips, but instead of watching him the whole time, watch a near competitor, then switch back and forth. It seriously looks like his film speed has been bumped up.
He looks like a Greek God. This kid is unbelievable. I still think his best race is the 400. I can see him running the 400 meter relay, 100, 400 & 1600 meter relay in the Olympics.
For me the key is that his knees lift higher than the others, plus he has a very upright technique. When I first saw him run I thought he looked very upright and mechanical in his running style / technique much like Usain Bolt. He also has a slim enough build / body weight that he doesn't have to carry much weight like some of the more powerful, but heavier runners. He has a good weight to mass ratio and could even pick up a few more pounds to reach his optimum. But I think his natural technique and probably good disciplined training and focus as a person are the three ingredients that set him apart. As a white man, his calves are a let down as he has the extra minor-calf muscle that black runners don't have which gives him a minor disadvantage, so it's impressive that he works beyond his natural flaws. I think if he continues on this path it would be a bright future. It is so nice to see a white man in a sport dominated by black men. Always means so much more when a person succeeds when they have an innate disadvantage, such as black body builders, white basketball players and certain disabled athletes that are slightly more or less disabled than their competitors.
His lower body biomechanics are perfect. Notice his legs look as if they are pulling him along and not pushing him along. I agree that if he improved his upper body biomechanics, he could go faster.
He was dominant in HS. He is getting washed in college. Wont be going to Tokyo. He needs to change his running mechanics. Way too wild and energy intensive.
Its hard work + natural talent but more natural talent and any athlete who thinks different is just in denial they have a body and genetics perfect for their sport.
Why is he so fast ? I can tell you just by watching him run. Boling has 2 things working for him. 1. Perfect running form. 2. His body's ability to resist lactic acid build-up.
I call bull. 1. Efficiently wired, highly myelinated motor neurons and purkinje cells in the cerebellum 2. minimum 70% fast twitch 3. Long achilles, long semitendinosus, long glutes 4. low foot arches, long mid-feet, short heel bones 5. Possibly close insertion of knee into shin Form comes from the physics, and the physics arive from energy and efficiency. I hope you do know that sprinting is done by the myotatic reflexes, which are only spinal and have nothing to do with the brain. The form is the result of their power and effectiveness.
@jaykay Most of these come from hard work (foremost 1. the most important) - the right type of hard work. That's the crux - how to do it right. If one has no grasp on physiology, well then... goodbye.
Lactic acid? Dude,he is not running more than few minutes. Actually he jus run less than a minute,so lactic acid is not that much effective om his speed.
I’ll answer the question in the title. The video says it’s his stride length, endurance, turnover, etc.........OK.......... Just how does he accomplish these things? Training, technique, and a huge variable, GENETICS. I could train 24 hours a day and use perfect technique but I’ll never be this fast. He’s maximizing his genetic potential. One would think that genetics would at least get a mention in the video or anyone his size and weight with the proper training and technique would be this fast.
Have you seen Brume okeoghene, he just ran 10.27 at 15 this year which is currently ranked #1 in u18 #1 in u20 and Ranked #3 senior. He is only 0.07s away from beating Sachin Dennis 10.20 at 15.
Bolt had a little rocking side to side himself, but he was getting down the track. The head now needs to be relaxed and not going side to side for sure
He's so rangey. Look how much bigger the range of movement of his limbs is compared to his competitors. His hands go higher, his knees go higher and he's so light on his toes. He's literally almost flying. Not surprised to see he's competing in the long jump too. One to watch for sure!
Coleman, Gay, Bromell, Blake, De Grasse, Su, Simbine... the list goes on. No you don't have to be tall but people think that because of Bolt. They forget that Bolt was a freak of nature tho.
@@TrackandFieldNation your height kind of does dictate it though, to an extent. You will never see a midget compete for the 100m dash, or any distance for that matter.
Yo if he did just relax when he ran a bit and formed a better stride he’d be seriously deadly. But he has plenty of time to work on it so imma keep watching 💪🏾
God given gifts, and work to hone his strength and technique. Look at his build in HS compared to Lyles. Before 20 he already had a grown man's body. He will still get stronger and his technique more refined. A good parallel would be Lebron James. James had an "NBA Body" as a teenager combined with world class explosiveness. That's Boling in a nutshell.
if you watch him run, the ball of his foot is pushing him forward like mini jumps or hops. It's like he is leaping while running, that is the secret. :)
Blæse Métan Secret? Hahaha! You ever hear of a guy named Carl Lewis? Well MB running style is very similar to CL, long stride pattern and high knee lift. BTW all sprinters run on the balls of there feet. No secret at all.
You're born with a certain percentage of fast twitch muscle fibers. You either have this or you don't and there's nothing you can do to change your genetics. He's built physically to be a sprinter but his fast twitch muscle fiber is what is setting him apart from everybody else.
That is true as far as this sport goes....either you have the genetics or you don't. If you do then you have to work your ass off training regardless. I have to say that I love the heart of the 400m, 800m, and 1500m (and mile) runners. These are my favorite events because they combine brutal speed with big drama.
He better start thinking about the long jump and 400m if he wants to be an Olympian in the future or the decathlon because he’s an all-around gifted track and field athlete .

There isn't a whole lot to say about it. He's a naturally gifted guy that trains correctly. That sounds like a recipe for success to me.
Naturally gifted is the key. Without the proper genetics you can train until the cows come home and you're never going to be a world class sprinter.

Why is he so fast ? I can tell you just by watching him run. Boling has 2 things working for him.
1. Perfect running form.
2. His body's ability to resist lactic acid build-up.
I call bull.
1. Efficiently wired, highly myelinated motor neurons and purkinje cells in the cerebellum
2. minimum 70% fast twitch
3. Long achilles, long semitendinosus, long glutes
4. low foot arches, long mid-feet, short heel bones
5. Possibly close insertion of knee into shin
Form comes from the physics, and the physics arive from energy and efficiency.
I hope you do know that sprinting is done by the myotatic reflexes, which are only spinal and have nothing to do with the brain.
The form is the result of their power and effectiveness.
@jaykay Most of these come from hard work (foremost 1. the most important) - the right type of hard work.
That's the crux - how to do it right.
If one has no grasp on physiology, well then... goodbye.
Lactic acid?
Dude,he is not running more than few minutes.
Actually he jus run less than a minute,so lactic acid is not that much effective om his speed.
@@iuhjuy1094 Is 1/100th of a second unheard of in track and field ? Dude ?
@@elli003 wdymbt?
Fast is relative.....he Looked slow in the U S Olympic Trials in the Semi of the 100 meter.
Talented.... Time will tell if He becomes Elite
I look forward to seeing him in Tokyo. Woohoo
He didn’t qualify in the 100m.
Surreal.
GENES !
I wonder if he uses any of the knee over toes training techniques
He is built and runs like a race horse.
C'mon, he's not that well endowed.
@@DexterHaven he said “built,” not “hung.”
I’ll answer the question in the title. The video says it’s his stride length, endurance, turnover, etc.........OK.......... Just how does he accomplish these things? Training, technique, and a huge variable, GENETICS. I could train 24 hours a day and use perfect technique but I’ll never be this fast. He’s maximizing his genetic potential. One would think that genetics would at least get a mention in the video or anyone his size and weight with the proper training and technique would be this fast.
Okay . . . if you’re going to bring logic into this discussion . . . .
Nick Saban said that you can't coach speed, you either have it or you don't.
why should he lessen his lateral movement? how do you know, that this is not one thing that actually makes him fast?
Crazy how commentators tell Elite athletes how to run
Have you seen Brume okeoghene, he just ran 10.27 at 15 this year which is currently ranked #1 in u18 #1 in u20 and Ranked #3 senior. He is only 0.07s away from beating Sachin Dennis 10.20 at 15.
Just knowing of him now, will take a look... Thanks a lot for bringing this to my attention
Ben S What's happened to Sachin Dennis. Don't seem to hear much of him lately.
@@TrackandFieldNation could he take erriyon knightons place as fastest junior
There is no track and field meets in Jamaica so he's not running.
I don't see why not, he's already that close at 15 yrs old
M.B. is promising but we'll see in years to come if he can break the 10 second barrier consistently to compete with world class athletes.
He should study Gatlin's unbelievable technique, who's still competing at a high level and he's, what, 52 years old?? lol
Gatlin is 38
Gatlin will be 39 in 5 days
As funny as this sounds, merlene ottey was actually still competing internationally at the age of 52! Fact
@@Ashwhatt11 Gatlin is also a Tennessee Vol, I just thought I’d throw that in the conversation.
maybe, but they are 2 completely different builds and forms..
He Can also Improve His Racing Clothes ✅ To Reduce Drag... Put Him in a Wind Tunnel
"Reduce Drag"?
In the context of sprinting, that is considered homophobic now. We welcome "drag", in high school track.
Dexter Haven That's Communist 🔥 Horse Shit
💥 Fast ✅ Twitch 💥
Bolt had a little rocking side to side himself, but he was getting down the track. The head now needs to be relaxed and not going side to side for sure
We see what happens this year
He's so rangey. Look how much bigger the range of movement of his limbs is compared to his competitors. His hands go higher, his knees go higher and he's so light on his toes. He's literally almost flying. Not surprised to see he's competing in the long jump too. One to watch for sure!
He needs to race kalon Barnes
Lol I literally just finished class and was wondering what I was gonna pass the time with .... Anyway I'm here
Glad to hear...sorry it's only 3 minutes
@@TrackandFieldNation that's fine
Does anyone have some tips im rlly fast but my stamina is rlly fucking trash and im not even smokin or sth
Intervals, hills, circuit training.
He’s on the juice
he's been seen drinking Tropicana
No Way
Why is he so fast? Best ask God about that one. :)
All you do is go with a shoe that's longer with a spring steel sole and you can increase your top end speed.
Would you say taller athletes are more likely to be built for running ?
No not at all...your height does not dictate how good a runner you can be...as a matter of fact most of the elite sprinters are less than 6ft
I guess you've never heard of Shelly Ann.
Coleman, Gay, Bromell, Blake, De Grasse, Su, Simbine... the list goes on. No you don't have to be tall but people think that because of Bolt. They forget that Bolt was a freak of nature tho.
@@TheoOJamaloO1 Exactly most people over 6’3 are normally slower than people below Bolt & Powell were freaks of nature
@@TrackandFieldNation your height kind of does dictate it though, to an extent. You will never see a midget compete for the 100m dash, or any distance for that matter.
Mathew Bolling is Fun to watch run!
I like his aggressive running
Yo if he did just relax when he ran a bit and formed a better stride he’d be seriously deadly. But he has plenty of time to work on it so imma keep watching 💪🏾
So Mathew Bolling beat Oblique Seville In the U20s?
Truth behind boiling ..is basic talent and hard work while buying well coached .,and a solid family backup ...it’s not complex ..
1) 1,83 m isn’t over 6 feet, in fact it’s actually 6 feet even.
6.003925 feet
@@efisgpr 003925 equals less than a 1/8 of an inch, it’s like taking an 1/8 of a inch and split it in 4 parts.. you do the math
@John Everyman it’s so minimal that it wouldn’t even show, it’s considered 6 feet even. Look up 1m83 on a measuring tape, you’ll find out
6.003925” > 6.0”
Because . . . math.
@@ScotchIrishTarheel still 6feet, we start counting over 6feet from 6 feet and a half of an inch...
It seems that his top speed isn't faster than other leading sprinters, but that he's able to sustain it for a longer period of time.
Can we just answer this with one word.... genetics.
and he doesn't have any coaches to tell him this
Dominating and there’s something very different about him! Ha!
as fast as he is he's the number two 20 and under 100 meter man in the world.. number one is from indonesia
Zhori can fly but he only weighs 130lbs. It’s a question if he can hold up for a full season and probably why his 200 isn’t on par with his 100.
Like all texas athletes. They peak early in high school but most of them don't get to much better.
Yep he’s built like a decathlete
He is a future star in the making stay healthy might brake few record..
I'm not sure what you're talking about if you're talking about world records I doubt it at 17 bolt was slot faster than him
God given gifts, and work to hone his strength and technique. Look at his build in HS compared to Lyles. Before 20 he already had a grown man's body. He will still get stronger and his technique more refined. A good parallel would be Lebron James. James had an "NBA Body" as a teenager combined with world class explosiveness. That's Boling in a nutshell.
His upper body movement seem to flail a bit. He needs to control those movements and relax more.
if you watch him run, the ball of his foot is pushing him forward like mini jumps or hops. It's like he is leaping while running, that is the secret. :)
Blæse Métan Secret? Hahaha! You ever hear of a guy named Carl Lewis? Well MB running style is very similar to CL, long stride pattern and high knee lift. BTW all sprinters run on the balls of there feet. No secret at all.
That's literally how sprinting works lol. It's no secret you have to do that if you want to become a professional sprinter.
That is basic sprint technique....
Lr shion....is that you👀 lmao
is he fast enough to compete in the olympic? he needs to clock below 10.05 to enter the competition for tokyo 2020
his indoor indicates that he should be able to come close, never know
@@Swav.Zielin did he qualify for tokyo 2020?
You're born with a certain percentage of fast twitch muscle fibers. You either have this or you don't and there's nothing you can do to change your genetics. He's built physically to be a sprinter but his fast twitch muscle fiber is what is setting him apart from everybody else.
That is true as far as this sport goes....either you have the genetics or you don't. If you do then you have to work your ass off training regardless. I have to say that I love the heart of the 400m, 800m, and 1500m (and mile) runners. These are my favorite events because they combine brutal speed with big drama.
True most people who are of West/Central African descent (including Caribbean’s) normally have faster twitch fibres.
@@TheAfricanNightDemon we can do it all...sprints/distance...
@J 0 you change a fast or ‘mid twitch’ fiber to slow
But you cannot change a slow fiber to fast
He got smoked in Olympic trials. Technique flaws showed up. Only made the semis
He better start thinking about the long jump and 400m if he wants to be an Olympian in the future or the decathlon because he’s an all-around gifted track and field athlete .
It's because of the way he holds his thumbs. That's 90% of it...thumb genetics. Lucky bastard.
Guy is amazing.
I tried to beat his record but I'm to slow 😠
NOT going to make O TEAM
No one is talking about the secret sauce? Right?
Same height as me...but I am 160
Has he or can he beat the Australian H.S. phenom??
Looks like he's floating
