[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally think it's tough to get faster as a sprinter if the natural ability isn't already there. You need the fast twitch musculature to support fast running. [/quote] This is correct. Everyone can get faster, but not everyone can be fast. [/quote] You first have to define "fast". For the OP it is "not last in every race". At the athlete's listed size we are simply looking to get a faster sprinter, there isn't a major body composition issue to address. Based also on the size and not being fast (currently) it is most likely a frail person who needs overall strength to improve. That alone will improve times and speed. Consistent speed training will absolutely get this kid faster. If they were to focus on sprinting as a year round, 2-3 times/week, pursuit they can become a more than decent HS sprinter.[/quote]
