10m Low-Heel Acceleration

First sprint distance of the workout, prescribed for 10 meters performed near max effort. The entire progression consists of 2 rounds (10m, 20m, 30m) for 6 total sprints. Full recovery between sprints is recommended to feel close to 100% recovered (noted as 3 to 6 minutes).

Key points

  • Focus on the first few steps of the drive phase
  • Keep feet low to the ground to strike early and apply horizontal force
  • Maintain an elliptical foot motion rather than a circular cycle during initial ground contacts
