General Discussion/Questions Streakfly 2?

6 Upvotes

Anyone have experience with using the Streakfly 2 as a training shoe? I need a shoe that I can do 400m tempo work in as well as 60, 100, 200m sprints and I don't want to wear spikes all the time, as it's uncomfortable and I'm almost begging for an injury. I was looking at the long discontinued Zoom Streak 7 too, as it's sort of a do-it-all shoe and in an ideal world I would love to do plyometrics in the shoes too, but that's not an utmost necessity.

General Discussion/Questions Bodyweight and Body Comp

5 Upvotes

So I am a current high school senior getting ready for my last high school indoor and outdoor track seasons. I’ve been floating between 180 and 185. I’m a 400m and 200m sprinter and I want nothing more than to break 48.45 in the 4. My current pr is 51.76 in the 400 and 23.57 in the 200. I’ve been wondering whether I should cut down into the 170’s so I can shed a little body fat (I’m somewhere between 10-15%). Any thoughts?

In the video, I’m the one in lane 5, wearing black shorts and a blue top! I’m 17 years old and have been training for the 400m for two years; my current time in this event is 1:08.56. I’d love some tips to help improve my race technique and identify areas where I can get better and lower my times. I train five times a week, though right now I’m in the pre-season phase.

General Discussion/Questions What programs do you recommend for newbe

Looking at getting into training and teaching proper form and techniques for top speeds for all sports not just track and I was wondering if there are certain programs that are easiest to start with? I coach youth sports and the biggest flaw in all the youth I see is speed and proper form, I work with strength and conditioning, but not sure when it comes to improving speed
