Sprint repeats

Mark 30 m; accelerate through; walk back recovery (2-3 min); repeat 6 times.

Muscles

Primary
glutes
Supporting
hamstrings, quads, calves

Mechanics

Pattern
power
Equipment
bodyweight
Geometry
Variable Range
Energy model
Glycolytic Pathway (10-90s)
Target feel
Peak neuromuscular output per rep — quality should not decline across sets.
Progression
Add reps; shorten rest; add resistance (sled, parachute).
Regression
Prowler sprint or bike sprint if lower-body injury limits top-speed running.

Watch for

  • Insufficient rest — turns into conditioning, kills power output
  • Heel striking at full speed — land midfoot and drive toes down
  • Stopping abruptly — decelerate over 10 m past the finish mark

Substitutions

  • Box jump
  • Assault bike sprints
  • Broad jump
