The Art of Sprinting: Techniques for Speed and Performance

Product Information

Making sure there is technical improvement is the prime indicator of what is good coaching and what is not. Seller sent the wrong item, but the wrong book has a very similar cover and seller addressed problem very quickly.

The book was the first time there was a clear definition of a field and it was incredibly important that we had several organisations coming together to establish a collective voice. Written by Chris Husbands, 'Sprinting' is an essential guide for all athletes at the beginning or development stages of their sprint careers who are committed to running faster. Book was also carefully and professionally wrapt, was a very fast ship, and was in good condition as described. This section aims to explain how to design sessions that are appropriate - it is not just a collection of standardized sessions.

It cannot be emphasized enough how important it is to work patiently and persistently toward improving running form and speed.

So much time is wasted bringing people together for meetings that usually end with just a list of bullet points.

in the 200m dash versus their previous year before I started as their strength and conditioning coach (with some athletes improving much more). Principles I used to help an athlete to an NCAA championship in the 55m dash in 2010 that I’ve been refining for almost another decade. The item was shipped fast and was nicely packaged in a very thick paper mailing envelope and arrived as scheduled in perfect used condition.

The book covers all sprint events from 60metres to 400 metres, as well as the hurdles and relay; principles of biomechanics, limiting factors and potential areas of capability; training and planning; rehab and avoiding injuries; practical nutritional advice and strength and conditioning. In Race Dynamics and Sprint Techniques, Coach Francis analyzes how a world class sprinter’s technique shifts throughout a race and the how the mechanics of the sprinter deliver this technique for maximum speed to be attained. The lessons I’ve gained as an athlete, coach and now podcaster and educator have all filtered into a product that I believe creates a platform for true, holistic thinking when sitting to build a speed program. Developing high-level speed-strength is considered a sort of ‘holy grail’ in the world of sports performance – we all want the fastest, most explosive athletes but we often struggle to find ways to get there.
