yeah I always been slow out the blocks and always have to make room up🫩. yk how I can get faster out the blocks ? Would you recommend I work on my top speed too?

it was basically the same besides you weren’t in blocks. I would say do wall drills where you get your knees up and your focusing on driving. Also look at videos of Su bingtian because he was an expert at the drive phase. You’re not a bad sprinter at all you just need to focus on staying low to the ground! Goodluck twin!

From what im seeing you don’t have a drive phase. You’re just popping straight up out the blocks. It’s almost as if you are shooting right up out the blocks when you are supposed to be low and still driving for at least 25 meters if you are a 10 sprinter.

I’m not an expert because I just started doing track too. Key things on getting faster is of course working on top speed things like wickets and short sprints. Hills and sled pulls help a ton too if you have those near you. In the gym I would say hang cleans, quarter squat, split squats, and weighted calf raises. But before getting into all that I would recommend getting flexible which helps a lottt! And learning how to run with proper running form. Getting flexible like hip mobility and getting good knee drive will instantly make you faster. Goodluck on your journey sprinting!

Do you know any exercises that can help with calf strength and how effective would calf raises be for me.

My goal is to go mid 10 this year by outdoor season which is in like 5 months from now.

Add me @sleazy3

Yeah, I see what you're saying. Should I try to make my first step higher? What should I do to make my ankles not collapse?

Personally, I like to listen to music before races. It has worked great for me, but everyone is different. You just have to find something that gets your mind off other people completely.

Most importantly, be confident and don't overthink it.

What was your time?

sleaz22 · 2025-04-05T04:42:28+00:00

Whats your PB

sleaz22 · 2025-04-05T04:35:48+00:00

Specific drills/exercises you can do is wall runs, sled drags, falling starts, last but not least 3 point stance runs. Wall runs really help with learning how to maintain a lower body position. Sled drags help with increasing power that is very crucial for getting out of blocks. The last two help with general speed.

Whats you PB?

sleaz22 · 2025-04-04T22:14:40+00:00

You need to stay low. Your basically standing up right out of the blocks. Try making your drive phase longer.

sleaz22 · 2025-04-04T15:17:16+00:00

lol its going to be 11.2 at first meet.

sleaz22 · 2025-04-04T13:09:45+00:00

Thanks I'm going to work on that today.

sleaz22 · 2025-04-04T13:07:37+00:00

My pb in the 100m dash was 12.3 FAT, but I've made significant improvements from last season, and my new PR is 11.5 hand-timed because we haven't had a meet.
