SPEED TRAINING

“Rapidity of movement or action” is how the Oxford Dictionary defines speed. Let’s face it, speed is the essence of sport and all sporting activities. Integral to speed are endurance and strength – especially of the elastic kind.So you want to become a great athlete, do you? Well, that may not be entirely unachievable, you know. Just remember, though: like every great feat speed too needs to be developed slowly, by degrees. You need to practice starting out small to begin with.Obviously, physical speed has a scientific basis. While this hasn’t been explored in any great depth, crucial to speeding is neural adaptability. In order for stimulation and neural activity to occur correctly, it is important to train in stages instead of going at it in fits and starts. Muscular development that goes hand in hand with such training also needs to be efficient and gradual. While speed training, you also need to develop stride frequency and stride length which, as is obvious, does not occur in a day. Slowly but surely you need to train with the help of relevant exercises every day so that you are able to build the power and strength to increase your flexibility. You must simultaneously develop your speed and endurance that can ultimately come to your aid in plentiful on the race track, on the cricket field or wherever you want to put it to use.Many people may not be aware that there is a definite relationship between the brain and brawn. Since developing bodily speed is a complex procedure, the brain needs to be trained along with the body as well. Your muscles contract with more rapidity as you learn to run faster while doing speed training. But do you realize that your brain needs to be informed about it? The answer is a thumping ‘Yes’.  For neuro-muscular pathways to function correctly, make sure that speed training occurs at high velocity at short intervals. Get, set, ready… and go!
