@@ATHLETE.X I would like to talk to you about opening a speed training center, I am a property manager, I will give you my e-mail if you are interested
I didn’t get a response, I will say a lot of your advice is good, but you neglect minimizing inefficient leg weight, especially lower leg weight, looking at all the sprinters who have run the 100 meters in under 10 seconds shows that legs being lean and muscular are optimal for speed, most non-African sprinters make the mistake you are making of having too much leg weight, Christophe Lemaitre started making this mistake in 2012, video footage shows as his leg weight increased his times became slower
another great ccombination for French contrast could be: heavy squat, light jump, heavy jump, 10 meter sprint it's suggested by Cal Dietz in triphasic training
Great video, interesting topic. I'm already doing simple contrast movements like box jumps or bw squat jumps between my squat's and trap bar Deadlift reps. I'll test some assisted movements with bands too.
Thanks for watching! Interested to hear how you like the assisted work. I like that you can attack the ground and have short ground contact times on the assisted work, plus the faster movements overall.
@@ATHLETE.X hi man! I tested the assisted work during the past week and it feels amazing. Really happy to have tried it. I enjoy a lot the high speed feeling on my muscles immediately after heavy sets. Much better than bw exercises
Not sure if I understood that well. So here what I understand 1. Exercise: Back squat 2. Loaded jumps 3. Depth jumps So I do these back to back, or I do back squats first, then when I finish them I move to loaded jumps and then to depth jumps ?
I like both. Trap bar is more like a squatting movement in my opinion whereas conventional deadlift has more of a hinging pattern to it. If you have back issues, trap bar might be easier on your back. If your back is in good shape, a conventional deadlift will do more for your hamstring and back development.
Thank you for the amazing information you put out there! After you pointed out everything very clearly it makes totally sense. Maybe often times we are a bit too old-school and stick to more traditional methods that offer less benefit. Thanks again, really appreciate your work!
This covers some stuff on shin splints: th-cam.com/video/elP4C36RsEw/w-d-xo.html Basically reduce running and plyometric volumes short term and make sure you’re working on perfecting your foot strike. Strengthen calves, anterior tibialis, feet, and reintroduce running/plyos based on lack of pain.
Hey athlete.x! I ran a 47.90 and 22.00 my senior year of hs 2017. I havent ran since but have recently started to get back into shape. I ran a 50.07 my first meet in 4 years and then broke my collarbone during my second meet of this year about two months ago. Im now recovered and want to prep for indoor. Any tips on how I can possibly recover to that shape I was in senior year? I want to break 47 eventually and 22 respectively. I'm 22 years old 5'7 and 133lbs. Thanks in advance!
nice topic! do you think athletes should start with complex training or progress to it over time when other methods stop working. I'm in high school can I start supersetting weights with squats already? Also last question, are the super heavy weights necessary to get faster or can you get strong enough with like 8rm? Thanks!
You can definitely progress to it over time, but I’d say anyone can do supersets as long as the loads and sets/reps are manageable. As far as how heavy to go, you can definitely get strong without going super heavy. I wouldn’t do anything that’s a true 1 rep max until you’re more developed and not seeing progress. Intensity level of 75%+\- 10% is probably a safe range to hang out in while still getting stronger, at least for static lifts like squats and bench.
Should you combine speed days with contrast training? Or should you only have one type of contrasting workout per session. So like instead of having strength days and speed days, have only days that combine strength and power / speed exercises.
Good evening Coach, I’m a sprinter and Im trying to improve my explosiveness out of the block. Does the trap bar/back squat and a broad jump make a good complex training combo to improve the explosiveness coming out the blocks?
He said it trains fast twitch and max velocity movements. He explained that: the bands make your mass/weight less so your limbs are able to move faster beyond your normal max velocity. Sorry I can’t time stamp when he said this.

I'm pretty sure strength/gym training doesn't help much for improvig sprinting speed in advanced athletes. It is probably more detrimental for the high level athlete because it more than often creates a recovery issue.
Always learning from the goat
Thanks homie. Trying my best!

Definitely a great option!
Great vid, I just found this channel recently and I’m liking these videos so far. Also, have you ever looked into the bilateral deficit?
Thanks a bunch for this. French Contrast process plus track drill variations are extremely helpful.
Cody, great info as ever, thanks
Thanks Robert!
hip thrust are very good

Amazing educational stuff! Thx a ton!
P.S. you should consider becoming a S&C coach for football or soccer
Not sure if I understood that well. So here what I understand
1. Exercise: Back squat
2. Loaded jumps
3. Depth jumps
So I do these back to back, or I do back squats first, then when I finish them I move to loaded jumps and then to depth jumps ?
You would do each exercise back to back, like 3 squats, 3 jumps, 2 depth jumps, rest, then repeat.
This is pure gold
great work man! awesome video!
trap bar vs barbell for spriting speed carryover?
I like both. Trap bar is more like a squatting movement in my opinion whereas conventional deadlift has more of a hinging pattern to it. If you have back issues, trap bar might be easier on your back. If your back is in good shape, a conventional deadlift will do more for your hamstring and back development.

Great presentation as usual. Im familiar with this type of training. I love the assisted band concepts. 👍👍
Could you do a video on shin splints and how to avoid getting them

Thanks Scott!
that,s a great video ,thanks man!
Thanks Chase!
What about the prior isometric potentiation exercise in French contrasts? Helps to activate everything and prevent injuries.
Can you do this whilst including cleans and snatches?
thanks for the vid, didn't know about Contrast Training before
now i can implement this concept in my training
I hear it is particularly useful for grumpy cats! lol
@@ATHLETE.X ay that's even better
Very good video🏃🏻♂️💨

Whenever I sprint, I feel like flying. I feel free. Too bad we can sprint only for short duration, else I will be sprinting for hours
Until nanotech helps us sprint for an hour
Good evening Coach, I’m a sprinter and Im trying to improve my explosiveness out of the block. Does the trap bar/back squat and a broad jump make a good complex training combo to improve the explosiveness coming out the blocks?
hallo, (Simple Contrast Versus French Contrast) this picture Is there any source

Hey sir what is benifit of banded vertical jump
He said it trains fast twitch and max velocity movements. He explained that: the bands make your mass/weight less so your limbs are able to move faster beyond your normal max velocity. Sorry I can’t time stamp when he said this.
Increase RFD
What's you back squat 1 RM?
What's ur weight
Right now I’m 190lb/86kg
I don't understand the difference between complex and contrast
