Really really good form
This guy is hot.
I had a sprained ankle during childhood and during my college years. The nervous system really does overreact and compensate like crazy, lost my elasticity
Can you do a stretching routine for sprinters.
Great video brother very informative, thanks for this awesome content! Man at 3:00 I could swear that’s Independence Gym, this gym I used to go to when I would visit AZ in the summer.
running more relaxed with better gct?
Congratulations! 💪🏾
you're so fast now that it looks like 1.5x video speed
Hey man whats your 10m fly with that 10.6 100m?
Idk what it is now but my fastest ever 10m split was 0.90. I ran 2.87 30-60 and 3.89 60-100m yesterday at practice.
bro, just run hills..
I'm trying to follow you bro
Regardless of your age or level, what’s the worst thing that can happen if you sprint regularly? You get faster.
i recommand you single arm swing for high speed entrance
Yeaaaa i see you bud
Good Job man, you'd be in top 200 in CIS easily
Thanks bro. The USA has so many sprinters, it’s nice to be reminded that if I was from another place I’d be ranked pretty well.
There’s something wrong with your form, but I can’t put my finger on it. It seems like you’re fully extending through your drive phase. When I pause the video your on top of your hips, and everything else seems alright. When I watch it live, though, it seems like you’re leaning forward and you’re not driving all the way through your stride. Do you need to keep your foot tighter to your glutes through the recovery? Maybe drive strait down, not extending forward on the start of your drive phase?
I love how relax you look
Are you in your on season *
Hi Cody hope you doing well I wanted to ask for some advice. When I sprint I let my lower leg move in front of my knees before striking down instead of striking as soon as my lower leg become perpendicular with the ground what are some cues you would recommend for me to fix this?
Congrats bro
@athlete.x is it okay to rest 1-2 after running 200’s? Most sources typically say to rest between 4-5 minutes for max effort sprints that range between 8-20 seconds
You need way more rest than 4-5 minutes for max effort sprints. These reps are supposed to be easy. 50-70% effort.
@@medogerty6013 really? No wonder my hip flexors are strained😂
Absolutely love your channel. Thank you for this
How many movements do you do in a session? I’ve bought a trainer’s program and there’s only 1 squat and 1 hinge movement for weights after sprinting, and he said he won’t even add hip flexors or calf raise work on top of his program cause I already get it from sprinting. I was like “Damn, just that simple?”
That’s real good
Last 30m need fix ure hand swing..
Thank you a lot
I have a question i see that you run the first 50-60 meters with open hands, but after that they are closed. Is there a reason for it, does it make you run faster? All the best!
I do the same, open palms for me atleast cause that's the position your arms start it. As you gain more speed and you mostly want the arms to follow, closing the palms allows me to swing faster
I do the exact same. It's a mental que, when you're into your drive phase you want to extend as much as possible, your ankles, your knees, your hips. It's an explosion, so your hands also "explode". When youre upright you want to be extremely calm and serene, so you let your hands close and relax more. You also can envision your fists being like a hammer the same way your legs are a hammer nailing the ground!
It’s mostly unconscious for me but it helps shorten the lever to allow for higher frequency & angular velocity. So as you speed up, the hands close to shorten the lever.
@@ATHLETE.X aha i see. Thanks!
@@2ball434 cool to hear that. For me it seems that i can get mine elbow way farther back with open hands. Fascinating! Success!
Run 450 tempo at 75%. If you’re a 58 sec quarter guy, run the first 350 at 56 sec tempo… rest 30 sec and sprint the last 100 emphasizing good ground contacts and big strong arms, and stay relaxed and run pretty. If you’re a 50 sec quarter guy, run the first 350 at a tempo of 58.5 sec. As you get into the season, shorten it to 350 and go at an 80-85% tempo. So if you’re a 48 sec quarter guy, your first 250 should be at a tempo of 35 sec. If you’re a 50 sec quarter guy, your first 250 should be at a tempo of 39 sec. I’m a hurdles coach at Bishop Lynch high school in Dallas Tx. I have had on average of at least 2 hurdlers qualify to state every year. This will help you finish strong and run with confidence. The 400 is a 60% anaerobic and 40% aerobic event.
Soon, you're going to have that su bingtion moment
Good job Cody. Sub 11 beautiful.
really great video
Should speed capacity workouts for 400m runners be done in the off season? Or only near races? because I heard it is very taxing on the body, so it may be unsustainable in off season training
Good work bro..how tall are you and how much you weigh?
I was standing at the start line. Meant to say hello. I’m an official.
Great job! 10,80 is fast.
Thanks Mike
The hairline tho
Always been that way. Lighter color & a cowlick at the corner has always made me look bald in direct sun when my hair is cut short.
That is a phenomenal performance. Cody if you can maintain your fitness levels and speed for a few more years you'll have a real shot at the World Masters title. Onwards and Upwards.
Thanks bro. I’m in it for the long haul! Goal is to break 10.5 at some point. I think it’s in the cards as I was 6-7lb heavier here than in my PR race as well as dealing with a lingering cold. Getting down below 175 (PR was at 177lb) and executing each phase to my best ability should be able to put it together and get below 10.6 or better. Appreciate your support as always!
@@ATHLETE.X You're going do it. I know you will. But most importantly you know you will. God bless you, strengthen and and empower you.
@@ATHLETE.X What's your height and weight?
wipe your ass
He runs like a Welschman. Doesn't he? Doesn't he run like a Welshman?😂

How long does it takes for speed development?
How old are you?
32
@@ATHLETE.X beast
Turning 33 this july.. last ran 100m at age 19 at 11.9seconds.. trying to keep fit to sprint again and beat my personal best after so long 😂
i wld say start off with 3-5lbs then work ur way up by a pound every week up to 10lbs. also what about using this in water like pool drills?
so doesn't the same concept apply to the weight vest when u remove it like when u got sick and lose weight? training at a certain weight for days/weeks at a time and then u lose it in one day shld affect you even worse by your logic lol
Cues to actively run like this?
If you fat start with 3 times find a side walk or something sprint back and forth 3 times a day , 7 days a week increase as every week
Any time I’m hurting.. I do tempo runs.. typically 120s and 150s about 75-85 percent effort.. and I concentrate on technique. It helps me reset.. and when I start increasing force and power later. I’m able to with get technique
