Quincy Wilson becoming the lebron of track😭 fanboys just going around hating on everyone💀 Joe and Quincy are both great runners, why can’t we appreciate both!?
5:10 hahahaha those chorizo dices are so weird. In Spain you buy the chorizo bar so that whenever you need you just cut off some slices for the meal of the day
Hi, joe.. how does athletics works in Britain.. like how do u guys make a living.. do athlete’s get a stipend or some type of funding from the government ?
What a found over years lifting weights and managing weight which has helped prep for races this year. I just manage my weight more a week before race , I cut sauces out 5-7 days before meets , gluten free pasta if I choose to eat it. As gluten makes your body hold water learnt this from a bodybuilder when prepping for a show😅. Only sugars I try get in this period is bananas & almond milk for cornlfakes , don’t eat no yoghurts. Water intake I increase slightly , vit c , b-6 b12 make sure I’m taken daily too. Then day before I’ll increase carbs , slightly get fueled up then same again on the day. Easy digestible foods , baby rice , carb gels , sports drinks. Done for last 2 meets as I put abit more thought into track this year. I mean I’m not a professional sports person but when I done this and took my diet more seriously this year for track , managed to get from 11.48 my first race this season as I was just finished my strength training cycle heaviest I had been just ran to see how I’d feel at this weight lol . Then 4 weeks later ran a 10.75pb. As 11.15 was my previous pb last year. I don’t count calories either as feel not needed as such just take a little more care that week prior. Make sure I’m on the ball.
Man I ran an 11.43 first race a few weeks ago. My 30m fly time is 2.95 I feel like I just need to put the race together properly. This comment gave me some hope
@@user-ze3sg6ix1u if you can run 2.97 30m fly or there abouts. Get consistent doing it. Then next work on your 10-30m acceleration should be around 4.00-4.10 (30m) , after that just get consistent maintain top speed ‘ore 10-30m fly work. You should be able to run 11.00 or abouts with those times. For me I keep training basic and seems to have worked but I’ve only been training for track alone about year or just over. Hope this helps! Even better if you have a coach as I that’s what I don’t have so on this journey alone lol
Great video! Love how simple you keep it, think that helps with consistency! Do you not have any protein powders? Or do you hit your protein goals without it?
We'd like to see a day in the life. What do you do between tucking into your Special K and throwing cucumbers around your kitchen? As in when do you edit your videos, do any sponsorship work with Adidas that is required, enter races, book travel etc or do you have a manager to do some of those things?
I’m a 200m sprinter I want to get to a 21-23 by 16 I’m 14 rn I’ve been wanting to change a lot things of my day to day life is it good to have a diet like this while also having a cheat day time to time
Yeah it’s important to not restrict yourself too much especially at a young age, as long as you have consistency in your daily diet it’s okay to treat yourself!
@@joeferguson200 I thought the british champs are always after the english champs since you can only compete at the british champs if you are invited, am I wrong ?
@@joeferguson200 Have you ever tried to get to roughly 6-7%, and if so did it help or hurt performance? The general consensus I've read about is every one percent drop would be about 0.1 faster 100m if you keep your power/weight ratio.
@@odp94aaa I tried this in 2020 and found that rule only applied to a certain extent, for me below 8% the strength & power loss outweighed the weight loss benefits so actually made me slower. It’s different for everyone but I’d say between 8-10% is probably my ideal for racing
Hello! I am a female sprinter heading to college soon and was wondering what an ideal body fat percentage would be to preform at the highest level. I am 5”1 and around 128-130 pounds and was wondering if loosing a few pounds could drop my times. Also wondering what my macros should look like. any ideas?
I’d try not to focus too much on body fat% but look at power:weight ratio, particularly in the areas that you’re weaker in. So take me for example, my thigh pushing strength is weaker than my lower limb strength (relatively) so I focus on ways to improve my strength in that area whilst keeping my bodyweight to a minimum without sacrificing on this strength. Losing a few pounds can help in some cases, I personally like to drop a few pounds before my big races to feel a bit sharper, but there’s no exact science with this and it’s about experimenting until you find a race weight that feels comfortable and also where you feel sharp & powerful. It might take some trial and error but everyone is different, I hope this helps!
I’m more of a vegetable person, and prefer to leave protein shakes as a last resort rather than relying on them as typically I can get enough protein from my normal diet
why don't you push the curbs high when you're an athlete I'd say it's the most important fastest source of energy for athletes and also post-workout recovery
I increase Carbs for winter training where volume is higher, and slightly decrease them when I’m tapering for the peak of my season to ensure I can hit my ideal race weight, and to focus more on protein for recovery. I still have plenty carb intake to get the job done during summer but eating a huge surplus just a couple weeks out from a big competition will just leave me retaining too much water
You mean Louie Hinchcliffe...Joe will.have a tough time at the trials with Zarnel.getting a medical exemption and some.quicker guys around. Solid performance gets him in the.relay squad!
The cucumber killed me off 💀🤣
😂😂
Man you are saviour to beginner & intermediate Athletes ❤️

I wasn’t ready to be bombarded like that 🤣 well said!
@joeferguson200 i think they're bot accounts lol. I think his PR team paid for some social media advertising to build his profile 😂
Yeah I was thinking the same
@@joeferguson200you go to the prospect hill school?
Very informative great to see what you eat in a day.
🙏🏼
5:10 hahahaha those chorizo dices are so weird. In Spain you buy the chorizo bar so that whenever you need you just cut off some slices for the meal of the day
Ready to go 😂 I feel like I might be able to get that in the UK too I’ll have to keep an eye out
Appreciate the video as a college sprinter
I’m glad you enjoyed!🙏🏼

Great vid, gl for olympic trials 🍀💪
Thank you 🙌
LETS GO JOE!!!!!!
🤝🙏🏼
Can you make a video of what you do when you’re not training. On the off day.
I can look at working this into a future video

best content around!!!
Azooooom🫶🏼
POV: your still trying to find the Quincy comments
Yea I'm confused where are they?
Good luck in the Olympic trials Joel.
Thank you!
A very good video joe keep the grind going hope to see more videos from you and hope you that you will make the team💪
Thank you!🙏🏼
Great video! Love how simple you keep it, think that helps with consistency! Do you not have any protein powders? Or do you hit your protein goals without it?
just read another comment,, you answered the protein shake question! :)
Glad you enjoyed! Yep I find protein from my diet easy enough to get🙏🏼
Great video! Have you compared your sprint performance of running earlier than 7pm for example 3pm ?
Thanks! I’ve found naturally my body has adjusted to running later in the day, but say I g that I’ve also ran fast in competition early in the morning
SEASON THE CHICKEN!!!!! 😭 5:08
I only just realised I forgot to until I saw this comment💀 I folded under pressure
When’s the next part of the speed operation?
It’s coming in the next week

@@tworunningbrooms I’m sure I could work this kind of thing into a future video, I’ll look into making it happen!
what's the beat called @2:31 though
very nice
Definitely agree how essential a good diet is for training and recovery how many calories do reckon you have as a rough estimate?
For sure! And with not counting calories it’s hard to estimate but I’d say probably in the ballpark of 3000
Great Video, I was just wondering what you do for work? Do you make enough of sprinting alone or do you do something else?
I don’t quite make enough from sprinting at the moment so I do a couple other things, it’s probably worth mentioning in a future video!
By the way Joe there is about 6.3 grams of protein in one large egg! 🥚
I thought when I was adding it up my maths seemed a bit low, that sounds more like it!
how much calories would you consume in the off season, pre season and in season
Check my recent upload for current calorie count!
Do you ever use caffeine or other stimulants when doing top speed training? Or do you save it for competition?
I try to limit caffeine until competition, that way I can get the full effect!

It is true that there is an english, scottish, welsh, irish national championships finals and there is a separate british championships ?
Yeah that’s true! The England championships are at the end of July
@@joeferguson200 when are the British champs ?
@@decathlete2000 this weekend!
@@joeferguson200 I thought the british champs are always after the english champs since you can only compete at the british champs if you are invited, am I wrong ?

Keep eating and Paris is coming

Quick Question: When your wear spikes for meets do you wear socks with them or nah?
Always socks with spikes for me as my feet are blister magnets hahaha
What’s your ideal body fat% going into peak season?
For me around 10% tends to work well

Why no fruit and no protein shakes, mate?
I’m more of a vegetable person, and prefer to leave protein shakes as a last resort rather than relying on them as typically I can get enough protein from my normal diet
More of these food videos! How many calories a day is this btw
Thanks for the feedback! It’s hard to say without counting calories but probably just under 3000
Watching this while having dinnner as an athlete ✅ good job my broooo
TH-cam🤝Eating dinner
One day will you do a day in the life???
For sure it’s something I can look into doing!
@@joeferguson200 Amazing then!
Whatch "the game changers" documentary ❤
You thing are you gonna qualify? How many people are classified in 100? And in 200?
Are you going to run both events in the trials?
It’s going to be tough but I’m gonna give it my best shot! I’m just running the 200 at trials and up to 3 people are selected
@@joeferguson200 I think 100m is your best event, but good luck, what famous runners are gonna run in 200m? You went to Rome Championships?
How tall are you Joe if you don’t mind me asking?
Ps:Keep working hard😅
I’m 5”10,
Will do!🙏🏼
no, its about 10gr of protein per egg...
6
no seasoning? lock in

don't be afraid of saturated fat Joe! :)
I do still intake some, but just try to limit it to a healthy degree🙌🏼

quincy wilson is faster and better than u
And he's faster than you your point?
Wrong event I’m not a 400m runner😁
quincy wilson>joe ferguson
Quincy Wilson is an amazing athlete but this has nothing to do with him
He's a 400m runner and Joe doesn't run 400m they're both great in their disciplines
