Below are a number of sprint training schedules for 100m, 200m and 400m. They are aimed at differing levels of ability, ages and time available for training. If you are a beginner or junior athlete then following the advanced training schedule will not instantly guarantee advanced performances, more likely will lead to over training and injury.
The schedules are a guide only and athletes should always follow the guidance of their coaches or teachers. All training sessions should be preceded by a warm up to increase body temperature and reduce muscle stiffness in preparation for the more vigorous physical exertion ahead. Immediately after training, a cool down routine should be performed in order to relax tired muscles, reduce waste products in the muscles and blood and gradually reduce body temperature to normal levels.
