MJP, always love your incredible advice. Most TH-camrs with track and field give you little to no advice. So, here we are in September and my son has made very good gains with his strength training. Almost doubled his strength. He has been lifting for 5 months, 5 to 6 days a week, plus core. With that said, my biggest concern is when to start incorporating plyometrics, and blockwork, because he is doing winter track and doesn't know if starting right now is beneficial or will hold him back. Finally, when should he start getting back on the track ( ie. doing 500, 400, 300, and 200 repeats)? I don't want to burn him out before he starts winter or even going into spring track. What workouts would suggest ( ie strength training and plyos now and then wait till the season starts to do track work, or get work on the track now combined with the plyos and strength training.) What is a great workout that you use for your sprinters this time of the year. Thanks MJP, you are an amazing person and have been incredibly helpful. Much thanks as always.
Right now I love doing grass 300m I only do 2-3 reps but the rest is normally 3-5 minutes. I like for them to be at a tempo which varies bast on the athlete but anywhere from 40-44 seconds on the 300m. We always work on creating acceleration with 4 point starts in the grass. Starts that go 10m then 20m then 30m. Really focusing on the the technical aspects of running to make a permanent habit of good body position. Along with contrast runs starting with either resistance bands, an uphill run, or a sled. And then going back to a regular grass 40m run. I love doing ankle hops, short straight leg bounds, long straight leg bounds, and bounding jumps as most of my plyometrics during this time of year. Stadium’s really help with turn over and strength going up and down the bleachers. The other workout I like to do is repeat 200m two sets of 4 reps @ 28-30 seconds with 2 minutes rest between reps and 7 minutes rest between sets. Hopefully this helps! 💯
@@MJPTV Awesome, awesome. So, where we get confused. Should he do these the same day he lifts? It seems like these workouts are broken down into 4 sections. Select 2 or 3 for the week or do all 4? Yes, love bounding exercise and bleachers.
@@MJPTV Okay, last Almighty question. When should he increase the amount of days for doing plyometrics? He has from now until the end of November before he starts his indoor winter season period so essentially has a little more than a month-and-a-half. Should I continue with Plyometrics and strength training and wait till he starts practice with his team for the repeat track workouts. Or should I get started on that stuff now? My biggest concern is burnout because he gets white into spring-track after that.
I would say start ramping things up at the beginning of October then back off at the end of October. The hardest part of the season is this base training period. So once this period is complete he’ll be able to handle the workload throughout the season.
I started eating healthy full clean diet high protein low fat good carbs and core strength and weights the improvement is insane and it’s only been 2 months
I recommend increasing vegetable / plant consumption or even going plant based. But for most people I recommend limiting animal protein to fish and chicken. As a sprinter it’s important that every meal and snack has a carb and a protein. Some good carbs: Bread, Pasta, Rice, Potatoes, Cereal, Fruits, 100% fruit juices, and oatmeal. They are the fuel for your muscles. Some good proteins: Chicken / Turkey, Fish, Eggs, and Beans. Most vegetables can also substitute these proteins. Because the animals we eat get their protein from vegetables and plants. Protein protects and rebuilds your muscles. Limit: High fat meats, high fat dairy, fried foods, butter, mayo, and creamy sauces. Fat empties very slowly from your stomach & too much fat can replace carbs and protein. You should fuel your body with a meal or snack every 2-3 hours. Snacks are in between meals and consist of an easily digestible carb and protein. Here’s a basic meal / snack schedule Hydrate throughout the day taking sips of water every few minutes. 7-9 AM: Meal 10:30 AM: Snack 12-1 PM: Light meal 2:00 PM: Snack *Practice* Hydrate After Practice: within 30 minutes have a snack with protein. 6-7PM: Meal 9PM Snack Keep in mind this a diet and meal plan for a sprinter the amount of carbs you’ll need will vary by your event. Hopefully this helps 🙏🏾
Man Ik I’m late but to videos helping. I’m finna prove all these doubters wrong and go ghost. They gonna wonder where I been and imma come out the best. I generally run the 4 but I’ve been training for the 2. Any ways to get faster at it?

Yes he should definitely lift after his running workout. I would say select two of these aerobic workouts a week.

Do you have any diet plans for track athletes?
I recommend increasing vegetable / plant consumption or even going plant based. But for most people I recommend limiting animal protein to fish and chicken.
As a sprinter it’s important that every meal and snack has a carb and a protein.
Some good carbs: Bread, Pasta, Rice, Potatoes, Cereal, Fruits, 100% fruit juices, and oatmeal. They are the fuel for your muscles.

You should fuel your body with a meal or snack every 2-3 hours. Snacks are in between meals and consist of an easily digestible carb and protein.
Here’s a basic meal / snack schedule
Hydrate throughout the day taking sips of water every few minutes.
7-9 AM: Meal
10:30 AM: Snack
12-1 PM: Light meal
2:00 PM: Snack
*Practice* Hydrate
After Practice: within 30 minutes have a snack with protein.
6-7PM: Meal
9PM Snack
Keep in mind this a diet and meal plan for a sprinter the amount of carbs you’ll need will vary by your event.
Hopefully this helps 🙏🏾
@@MJPTV Thank you so much i have so much more questions is it ok if i email you with them?

@@MJPTV u think boling can run a 9.8 this month after that 20.19 indoor I think he can run anything
If everything goes right yes, but I think he’ll run 9.93
@@MJPTV good prediction
Like the New hair
I keep my 3 styles in rotation 👏🏾
Will bring my knee higher be enough to increase my stride length or do I need to go through that cycle that usain bolt goes through
Knee height is just a product of an increased stride length. Proper execution of the cycle and power production creates stride length.
@@MJPTV ok
