Lakeidra Hayes - Developing the Complete Sprinter
by Texas Track & Field Coaches Association
Description
Develop faster, more complete sprinters, from the 100/200 to relays, hurdles, and even jumpers.
In this course, you’ll learn a proven system for building speed the right way: training acceleration, max velocity, and speed endurance early and intentionally, without over-conditioning or “frying” athletes. You’ll get practical coaching cues, drill progressions, and sample session structures that emphasize quality reps, full recovery, and clean mechanics, so athletes are training speed, not survival.
If your goal is consistent sprint development across a full program of sprinters, hurdlers, relay runners, and multi-event athletes, this course gives you the blueprint.
Train speed. Protect mechanics. Build athletes who keep improving year after year.
