When I was 14,I had 11,7 hand timed. Then I was like GAINZZZ,POWER,ENDURANCE,and I trained all those qualities,and you know what,I got 12,4 after six months of preparation. Speed endurance is a myth,because you can't produce dozens of ATP without oxygen,and you slow down,but if you train neuromuscular coordination and ankle resilience and stiffness,energy distribution instead,results will be the way better. Yeah,I could overtrain,but my peers,who don't like sprinting as much still train sprint endurance,they lose when we compete,even if they have better maximum velocity.
Let's consider indoor soccer... Futsal for example. These athletes would never reach max velocity, but considering that the run of play may last for a good amount of time where speed, acceleration, and change of direction are occurring, would it be worth training speed endurance?
I use soccer field sprints as training because running on grass is easier on your legs and all that directional change helps in injury prevention by strengthening ligaments and muscles that normally don't get used in flat training. You know the people that injure themselves stepping on a pebble or twig? That's because they haven't done other styles of running. Also why i like the occasional trail run for injury prevention.
SO how many times would we do each run. For instance how many 30-70m runs do we do on max velocity day. As well with speed endurance and acceleration. Also how many days in a week should we do each each type of workout? Thanks.
You have the speed endurance around the wrong way. Speed endurance is developed at maximum speed, or very close to it (just like speed work) so it needs to begin over 60-80m depending on the ability of the athlete and gradually increased each week. Speed should always be developed before speed endurance. Don't confuse speed endurance with tempo or extensive tempo, which is run at around 60-75% pace and 75-90% pace respectively. A lot of sprint coaches avoid extensive tempo as it can have a negative effect on speed development. Tempo on the other hand, can enhance recovery.
World class runners in the 800 are nearly sprinting, would you periodize such athletes in terms of speed endurance in the same manner (100-200%) of their event distance? That would mean a speed endurance day of up to 1600m at the beginning of training. It seems that the 100-200% rule of thumb has some gray area when you’re talking about elite athletes that can stay largely glycolytic for an entire 800m race.
You could train top speed twice per week if you can recover from it. I haven't included plyometrics, power and strength training in this example but they should be trained too
for the 400m, lactic acid training to help you extend the distance you can run before hitting that wall.
The recovery days in between these sessions are important if you are going @ 90+ % during these efforts.
400m guys don’t really do 800s for their speed endurance sessions. I’d have said the range is 50-150% of race distance, not 100-200%
Very good, Pete! Have you read "Training for Speed" by Charlie Francis? It's an excellent read!
No, but it is definitely on my reading list 📚
his techniques were good but that name will forever be tainted by him making his athletes use steroids.

Always train max velocity simultaneously with other qualities.
I agree Pete you have to also add max velocity
Pete great job
Glad you liked it 👍

No, I would consider that repeated sprint ability, rather than speed endurance 👍

2-5 sprints with full recovery between sprints 👍
@@FlowHighPerformance1Question, do you go all out when training speed endurance? Or do you run 70%-90% with submaximal recovery?🤔

Good point. Yes, it makes less sense for elite athletes, maybe 100-125% is a more suitable range 👍
Should I sprint with max intent to build speed endurance ?
No, I would say to sprint around 90% effort for speed endurance
thanks @@FlowHighPerformance1
please keep stamina training
Hey what about Training top speed twice a week ??and why don't you add plyometrics in a week session
You could train top speed twice per week if you can recover from it. I haven't included plyometrics, power and strength training in this example but they should be trained too
@@FlowHighPerformance1 thanks buddy for replying i appreciate it keep making more content
