Speed training

Speed training
There are different ways to improve your speed such as to improve your flexibility by PNF stretching(look in earlier post) or your explosive strength by plyometric training(look in earlier post) or weight training but in our lesson we done a speed based interval training and this session consisted  of  sprinting drills and the runs them selves had a shorter duration but were higher intensity. We were working at a intensity called maximal intensity which is almost flat out.
Sprinting drills
The kind of sprinting drills were high knees with very short steps and heel flicks. Also to work on our technique like our arm movement.
Runs
The runs we ran were 8x10m, 6x20m, 4x40m, 2x60m.
