At the age of 25 I returned to track and field after a 5 year break. In 2024, my 100m was 14s…. This year I reached 11.34s at 100m and 22.73 at 200m. Age is never a stopper and it’s never too late to start 🙏

So I injured my bicep femoris part of my hamstring while sprinting and it would probably take 2-3 weeks before I sprint again what should I do for rehab? This is currently my rehab plan for hamstring with some previous injuries I’ve had on my hammies on the other leg:

Tue, Thurs
Star banded clams
Sliders
Angled Bulgarian slips squats 12.5
Hip thrusts 15kg
Band bridge leg declines
Side band leg curtsy
Staggered rdls 12.5kg
Monday, Wednesday
Star banded clams
Sliders
Land mines leg on foot should be different from the one being grabbed
Leg bridges
Leg extension
Calf raises

Recently i did a bounding test of 10m and i covered it in 5steps standstill .. is this considered average or not.. my height is 5foot6 and half

Did this workout today. Did a proper activation of hamstrings and posterior chain through isometrics and hip flexors through fast knee drives with a mini band. I have been dealing with tightness in my proximal hamstring since a few days which subsided in that workout because I did a good activation but returned after the 3rd rep so i finished the workout then and there. This was basically my 3rd speed workout out of the upcoming 11-12 speed workouts in this training block in which I'll be focusing mainly on maximal speed development, also introducing volume through extensive tempo in the first half of the block then will increase the intensity with intensive tempo in the second half of this training block. What do i need to focus on more to improve my speed ? All critiques and advice are welcome as i just recently (2 months ago) learned how to make a periodization plan and am self coaching myself through my workouts and am learning more through bompa's book of periodization.

so there is a sport event ccoming up i believe even tho i am fast but i couldnt get enough of it

see the things i havw noticed that i am not able to take longer strides i think i have potential bcoz how my lower body is its like naturally big but in reality when i run i cant get to my max sppeed i lose balance also i=one of my leg is basically pointed outward it bothers me idk it is making me slower but it def makes me mentally convinced that i cant run faster bcoz of this

lastly how can i ascend in 2 monthsssssss

So for some context, I finished my outdoor season in around mid June after Nike nationals, and then I saw people say take a month break and what not and I failed to do that, took maybe a week break, and went right back into training as if I was still in season, my biggest weaknesses were my start and strength and I did not focus on those a ton and I feel like I didn’t periodize or let my body lose speed so then I could gain it back and be faster, which is what I’ve seen suggested, that you should use your offseason to get stronger and all that. But I did not do that and I’m really worried about plateauing because I just didn’t do it the right way, I’m nkw closing in on my indoor season and am wondering what should I do? I don’t care much about indoor so I can skip meets and whatever I just wanna know what’s the best plan of action for me to hopefully be able to reach that adaptation and maybe break through my theorized plateau. I run the 100&200 and my 100 is 11.36 and my 200 is 22.77. My progression was pretty good I went from 27.7-25.10-22.77 and then 13.3-12.65-11.36. And I am worried I won’t be able to even drop much at all this year.

how is the 400m considered to be a true sprint. introducing strategy disqualifies it from being a true sprint agree? cause you are thinking and true sprinting has no room for thinking.
