The 3 Keys to Getting Faster:


âś… Apply more mass specific force into the ground


The ground is a force plate: the more you put in, the more you get back out. This is why getting stronger has such a profound effect on increasing speed, specifically relative strength: you must become very pound for pound strong-not just stronger overall-in order to sprint fast. Fat doesn’t fly, and neither does weak 


âś… Improve Technique


Speed is a skill; it can be trained. Learning the proper bio mechanical positions of speed, both in acceleration and max velocity, allows athletes to sprint at the speeds they’re capable of, and not “leak” speed due to improper technique 


âś… Increase Rate of Force Development

 

Your strength potential is only as useful as your ability to manifest it in a short amount of TIME; this is why the dynamic method and plyometrics have such great carryover to improving speed. Being able to apply force in ever decreasing increments of time is ultimately what takes guys from slow to fast, and fast to elite speed
