When Your Training For Track There Is No Point In Running 400 300 200 100 That Is Just Insane You Break Those Down So Instead Of Running A 400 You Would Run A 200m 100% Follwed By 5 Mins Rest Then Run Another 200m % And You Decrease The Rest As You Get Further Along Into The Program I Know This Becuase I Have Worked Out With Some Of The Fastest People In The World That The Us Has In Arlington Tx Jj Johnson & Jerome Young & Jeremy Wariner & Darold Williamson In Waco To Name A Few You Can Ask Them Any Day Of The Week And They Will Tell You Running 400 300 200 100 400 Is Pointless....
It Is Pointless For The Reason Of-----> If You Run Say A 400 Then Thats Ok But To Turn Around And Run A 300 Right After That Your Legs Are Still Going To Be Full Of Lactic Acid From The 400 So You Will Not Be Able To Perform At 100% On That 300 And The Time Will Be Slow....have You Ever Heard The Saying Practice Makes Perfect??? That Saying Doesnt Xsist In Track The Saying For Track Goes Perfect Practice Makes Perfect.....becuase If You Are Not Running 100% Times In Practice Your Doing Nuthin But Training Your Body To Run A Slow Less That 100% Time
Good Track Workout For The 400m
Warm Up Very Well
